Tagish First Nation Staff and Elders are available to answer questions about the site and a variety of First Nations art pieces and crafts are available for purchase as well.
• Next, transfer to Fraser and Board a vintage rail car for an approximate 95-minute, fully narrated trip aboard the historic White Pass & Yukon Route. Against all odds, the iron trail was carved through some of the North's most rugged terrain in 1898.This engineering wonder descends nearly 3,000 feet over 20 miles of steep grades and cliff-hanging turns.
• Arrive back in Skagway where you can choose to explore the town and return to the ship.
