Chilkoot Pass: A Hiker's Historical Guide to the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park

The Chilkoot Pass is indeed the most famous trail in the North, and Archie Satterfield has written a unique book that is ideal for both hikers and armchair travelers. This revised edition with current trail updates is history, adventure, and an excellent guide to the Klondike Gold Rush National Park all in one. The Chilkoot Trail has been called the "meanest 32 miles in history" and the history detailed in this book will corroborate that as well as why, conversely, hikers, travelers, and students today call it the "most beautiful 32 miles in Alaska and British Columbia." Archie Satterfield, an experienced hiker and outdoorsperson, has written more than twenty books. He's made several trips over the Chilkoot and down the Yukon River.
