Sept. 30 Drive to Fraser BC and return.

Joan in the cool mornings

Along the rail line

The rail line runs beside the lake for several kms
We are in Carcross for three nights to see the scenery in the south Yukon and Northern British Columbia. We drove to Fraser BC and back today. Fraser is a railway town left over from the 1898 Gold Rush. The White Pass and Yukon Railway is a narrow gauge railway built for the miners to get to Whitehorse from Skagway in Alaska. The railway still runs, but mostly for tourists. The road we took goes to Skagway, but I didn't bring the passports so we didn't cross the border.
The Aspen and Tamarack trees turn yellow.
