Frommer's Review
Take a tour of the largest of the 250 riverboats that chugged up and down the Yukon River between 1929 and 1955, primarily as a cargo transport. Actually, the one on view was built in 1936 to replace the first Klondike, which ran aground. The Klondike is now permanently dry-docked beside the river, and is a designated national historic site. The boat has been restored to its late 1930s glory.
