Another wonderful hike: the chilkoot trail

The chilkoot trail is the trail the goldrush stampeders used to get to Dawson, only to find out that all the gold was gone. In those days information was slow to reach the public. The hike was difficult due to the weather and to the gear they carried. Especially the top at 1100 meters was difficult. Nowadays the top signifies the border between the US and Canada. So it would seem that we are going to cross the canadian/us border quite a few times.
