Sign Post Forest

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.

For our daughter that is fascinated by space this place was well worth a visit. The movies were informative (Dr. strange narrated a film about the sun) and the Northern Lights one was the beat way to experience the phenomenon during the Canadian summer. Thy also had some info about the different canadian astronauts and a model piece of the canada arm. If you like space check it out. Otherwise if you’re like my wife and have no interest its better to avoid.
