Scene on the Yukon River at Dawson
“It would be very hard indeed for me to express in words our
enjoyment of the trip from Skaguay to Dawson. It was just one
round of pleasure and satisfaction from beginning to end.”’

S. M. Evans, New York City

return on the same steamer make a great mistake, as the Atlin
trip alone is more than worth the stop-over. |

very much, but very much more the trip from Skaguay to Dawson
and return. The scenery is much more varied and interesting than
that along the Alaskan coast and the accommodations and service
on Yukon steamer were all that could be asked.” |

“I am free to say that I know of no other trip (to Dawson and
Atlin) I have taken that I and the rest of my party enjoyed as
much, and I'am sure that I have never taken a trip where the
officers of the company and all the employees have done so much
for my comfort and pleasure. ’’

“T have travelled over the
larger portion of Canada and the
greater part of the United States
and the Continent of Europe, and
I can say without hesitancy that
no more beautiful scenery exists
anywhere in the world than that
which one can obtain in your very
interesting trip from Skaguay to
Dawson. I think, perhaps, I
enjoyed the return trip even more
than the going. I| look forward to
the opportunity of taking the trip
again with increased delight.”’

J. B. Ferguson, Toronto, Ont.

passes anything we have seen in

that is saying a great deal.”

Maria C. Hogan,
Bryn Athyn, Pa.

‘‘T am glad to say that we enjoyed our trip to Atlin and Daw-
son immensely. The weather was delightful, the towns and
people very interesting and the scenery glorious. We found
the meals and service in the interior entirely satisfactory, and

we are especially pleased with the courtesy shown us by the |

officers and employees of your Company.”

Yours truly,
Edith Matheny, Springfield, III.

‘your beautiful Alaska mountains surpass any | have ever seen.”’

“Pand thoroughly comfortable.

Miles Canyon

The trip down the Yukon was unique in many ways. The wild,
untamed beauty, the sense of plunging into the primeval, grips the
imagination and the heart. One comes to feel a love for this great
river and the vast stretches of wilderness that border .it, a love that
takes hold of one and never lets go its grasp. .

“The river is ever beautiful. Now wide, now narrow, it sweeps
on, sometimes with many channels, sometimes with just one be.
tween high bluffs, until at last a high mountain looms on the left,
an island in the middle of the stream, two domes on the right,
one with a great scar like a cave on its side, and Dawson appears.

“Then too, the trip is unusually restful. The steamers are modern

from wind and sun. The table is excellent. Indeed, it is a cause

of comment that such variety of delicious food can be served so far
from the base of supplies.”’ |
