The SS Klondike is a meticulously restored sternwheeler that plied the Yukon River from 1929 to 1936, hauling silver, lead, and supplies. Visitors can walk the decks, peer into the engine room, and imagine life aboard during the gold rush era. The ship's elegant design and detailed exhibits highlight its role in opening the North. A guided tour reveals stories of crew and cargo, making this a vivid window into river transport history.
