South Klondike Highway Photo Album

The beautiful drive south along Windy Arm (which usually is windy). This is the view southbound at Km 84.5. The buildings on the shore are part of the Venus silver mine, which shipped ore from here for several years starting in 1905. The story of the mines is told in the book Fractured Veins & Broken Dreams.
