Dyea, Alaska from Dyea Mt., ca. 1899 |
||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
Dyea was a short-lived town used by prospectors during the Klondike Gold Rush as an entrance to the Chilkoot Trail. It became less popular after a large avalanche blocked much of the trail on April 3, 1898 killing over 70 prospectors. In May 1898 White Pass & Yukon Route railroad route opened in the neighboring town of Skagway, offering a faster, safer way for prospectors and their gear to reach the gold fields.; Dyea, from the summit of Dyea Mt. (4,500 ft.) showing 40 miles of Lynn Canal, copyright, 401. Skaguay wharves and Smugglers Cove.; General Dyea location provided. |
