With the exception of Emerald Lake the scenes in this gallery were taken during a trip on the White Pass & Yukon Route Train. The train starts out in Skagway, Alaska ... you slowly climb up mountains, go over a canyon (very slowly), and then stop at the end-of-the-line in Bennett (Yukon Territory) for lunch.

I highly recommend taking the White Pass & Yukon Route Train simply for the sake of having a lot of fun. However, if you into photography then be sure and take the early morning trip; otherwise, you will be on the wrong side of the sun for most of the shots. Also note, the train makes a few stops along the way but many of your shots will be taken while the train is moving ... but don't worry, there are plenty of locations in the train to stand and shoot without having windows in the way.

IMPORTANT, please note ... whenever you visit a Pbase gallery for the first time, or if you have clicked on a size smaller than "original size" while visiting this or any other Pbase gallery, please be sure to click on "original" size, otherwise you will be presented with a low quality JPEG as versus the high quality JPEG (the size doesn't change, only the quality level of the JPEG compression); you only have to do this once, on the very first picture you look at.

Alternatively, on the very first picture you can add "/original" to the URL in the address bar and hit "refresh" or "go" as the case may be; again, you only have to do this once (on the very first picture). This "/original to the URL" approach is the sure-fire/no-mistake/best way to ensure you will see the highest quality JPEG presentation.
