I admit it, my husband and I have fallen under the spell of the Yukon. We've driven the Alaska Highway and visited Dawson over twenty times. For the past two years the theater has been closed for repairs but I have great memories. Parks Canada has done some very good tours with the guides dressed in Gold Rush attire. The inside of the theater is opulent with a painting of Arizona Charlie (who built the original in 1899) on the wall and a bar on the opposing wall. The theater itself is opulent with red curtains. We saw Parks Canada guides impersonate famous characters of the Gold Rush era on the stage. We saw the balcony with its private boxes and the red dressing room. What an experience. Another year we saw the display of the gowns worn by the present residents to a gala. A beautiful venue. Looking forward to our next visit.

Saw this briefly as oart of a city tour ru by Northern Tales. Not much to see but fascination that it is so long, but at least Whitehorse has made the effort to help salmon migrate. Sad to hear that there are so fewer salmon around these days.

We visited as part of a group tour and were met by Sarah, dressed in period costume. There is a small amphitheater built in the grounds of the cottage where you can sit under cover. Sarah recited the Cremation of Sam McGee and two other poems and chatted about Robert Service’s life. She was excellent!

very interesting historical past. A must see on your Yukon Tour. Dawson Creek a gateway to the Alaska Highway, the only major road that connects Northern BC, the Yukon, and Alaska to southern Canada and the lower 48° states of the United States.
9. Sign Post Forest
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By JenniferandAlan - Easton, United States
We have made 21 trips to the Yukon traveling by car on the Alaska Highway and this is one of our favorite stops. The origin of the signpost forest was during WWII when homesick servicemen building the highway posted their signs telling how far they were from home. Don't forget to bring a sign of your own to add to the thousands already there. We add one each year and delight in reading other peoples signs to see where they came from. There is also a good movie in the visitors center about the construction of the highway and they will also lend you a hammer to post your own sign.

This historic old Sternwheeler shows you what it must have been like to travel in the days of the Klondike and Alaska Gold Rush. They have guided and self guided ours and both are great. The days of the gold rush must have been amazing and our ancestors that led the way must have been amazing and courageous individuals.. Be sure to watch the video for a good overview of what it was like.
