“All
Aboard!” A century ago, that command meant “Gold Rush!” to the prospectors who
rode the rails over the White Pass and into the wilds of the Klondike. Hauling
gear over the rugged pass was a grueling ordeal before the narrow gauge railroad
was built.
No
backpack could hold the 1,000 pounds of supplies the authorities required each
miner to have! U.S. mints in Seattle and San Francisco received $10 million
worth of Klondike gold in just five months (July-November 1898), with another
$38 million recorded by 1900, an impressive figure by 1900 prices!
Today,
the White Pass Railroad shuttles adventurers from the terminus of Alaska’s Marine
Highway into the rugged wilderness of the Last Frontier.
