Chilkoot trail: from Alaska to Yukon/Canada.

This is a Canada's National Historic Site.
This path was first crossed by Chilkoot Tlingit traders and later stormed by the Klondike Gold Rush stampeders.

The hike is 53 km (33 mi).

Dyea, Alaska.

* Goal:
Bennett lake, British Columbia

* I found this in the Lonely planet, Alaska.
Lonely Planet 
This is 2nd attraction/place to go in the guide book.

この道は,最初,チルクート族の交易に使われた。
19世紀の終わりには,クロンダイクの黄金を目指した人々が世界中からやってきた。

アラスカのSkagway/Dyeaからカナダのブリティッシュコロンビア州のベネット湖までの54kmのトレイル。

初めの二日は緩やかな登り,三日目の山頂/国境を越える道はかなり厳しい。
