As you’ve seen it in the previous episode, we had a great time in Dawson City. However, while our excitement grows for the next leg of our adventure, it was time to have a last campfire on the Millenium Dome and then to say goodbye to our friends.
The ferry from Dawson City to the other side of the Yukon River is the only way to cross the river during the summer months as there are no bridges.
The ferry is operated by the territorial government and is free of charge. The ride takes around 15 minutes.
It runs 24 hours per day, except Friday mornings, when it is shut down for servicing. The steel ferry George Black has been transporting people and vehicles across the Yukon River at Dawson since 1967.
The service is closed during winter months, when the river is frozen and visitors must use the ice road to cross the river.
The Top of the World Highway is a scenic, unpaved road that connects Dawson City, Yukon and Chicken, Alaska. It is a seasonal road that is only open during the summer months and is known for its spectacular views of the surrounding wilderness.
The road can be rough in places, but the drive is well worth it for the breathtaking scenery. The highway is also known for its historic significance, as it passes through the heart of the Klondike gold rush trail and passes by several important gold rush sites.
Our drive on the Highway is a great way to still experience the remote and rugged beauty of the north and the history of the gold rush.
