Kada je trojac kopača pronašao zlato u pritoci rijeke Klondajk 1896. godine, pokrenuli su jednu od najvećih svjetskih groznica za zlatom. Za početak, stampederi su morali pješačiti izdajničkom stazom Chilkoot kako bi došli do svog blaga. Ali između 1898. i 1900. godine izgrađena je uskotračna željeznica kroz naizgled nemoguć teren kako bi putovanje bilo mnogo lakše. Bijeli prolaz i željeznica Jukon zahtijevali su tunele, stubove, nagibe do 3,9% i uske krivine na liticama; penje se skoro 1.000 metara u svoja prva 32 kilometra. Sada nosi posjetioce duž rijeke Skagway, stišćući se između vodopada, guste šume i glečera koji stenju, prelazeći granicu SAD-a i Kanade na White Pass-u i spuštajući se do jezera Bennett, nekada mjesta užurbanog šatorskog grada, gdje su tragači unaprijed trenirali pauzirao nakon što je preživio Chilkoot Trail.
