Pass By: White Pass & Yukon Route Railway, 201 2nd Ave, Skagway, AK 99840, USA
The tour continues up the stunning views of the Klondike Highway, travelling parallel to the historic White Pass Trail for most of the tour, with its peak at a 3,292 foot summit.
The views of the glacier-carved valley include glaciers, stunning waterfalls, and some amazing mountain views. When you arrive at the summit, we descend through to the daunting Tormented Valley in British Columbia, Canada. It is this area that inspired the classic authors Robert Service and Jack London.
The Tormented Valley is an eco-tone; two separate ecosystems transform to become the other. After visiting this area of 300 to 400-year-old trees known as "Krummholz", many of which are no taller than chest-high, you will return to Skagway.
During your Skagway excursion, various photo stops will be made to help you maximize your Alaskan experience.
