Skagway and Dyea: Gold Rush Boom Towns
Skagway and Dyea, Alaska, located 600 miles south of the gold fields, were the closest salt water ports to the Klondike. They soon became "boom towns" that catered to miners. The most popular routes to the Klondike began here: from Skagway, stampeders took the White Pass and from Dyea they took the Chilkoot Pass.
