WHAT YOU VISIT

Dyea
Located in the Taiya River Valley, this once-rousing Klondike Gold Rush town is recognized as a National Historic Landmark. Just outside of town is an authentic dogsledding summer training camp. Here, you'll meet experienced mushers and join in a "Musher Talk" for a fascinating discussion of what it takes to be a musher in punishing races like the Iditarod. After a question and answer period, you can meet the puppies that will one day lead the team. Then, you can take a leisurely self-guided hike along a scenic trail or relax in the saloon with a deck overlooking a picturesque stream.

PHOTO OPPORTUNITY
What could be cuter than taking a selfie with adorable Husky puppies?

SNACK
After cuddling time with the puppies, everyone can sit around the campfire. Of course, where there is a campfire there are s'mores, the ultimate sweet snack made with a chocolate bar and toasted marshmallows sandwiched between graham crackers. Create your own delicious treat as your guide teaches you the art of s'more roasting.

SHOPPING
Before returning to the ship, you can browse the mercantile in search of that perfect souvenir.

WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
Your journey begins with an entertaining historic tour through downtown Skagway and along nine miles of stunning coastline to an Adventure Camp in Dyea.
