We hiked the Chilkoot trail mid August of 2012.

After a couple days on the flat you start up. This is looking back down the trail.

Looking ahead from "the scales" where miners had to weigh their ton of materials before they could cross into Canada.

And yet more climbing with a false summit.

Over the top now heading down into Canada.

Looking back up at the summit. That box at the top is an outhouse.

We lucked out and had great weather the whole trip.

Then on to Bennett to meet the train back to Skagway. I think we did it in five days, 33 miles starting at sea level. I think the summit is 3,600'
