A morning drive out of Skagway climbs the narrow ribbon of the South Klondike Highway and immediately trades cruise-ship bustle for a landscape that moves with intent. Peaks push up from the valley, waterfalls thread down rock faces, and the Tutshi River hurries toward its mouth as if daring you to keep up. The van steers into a changing climate—rain-softened rainforest gives way to bright, sub-alpine expanses above the timberline where moon-like meadows and scree fields open the view.
