The city of Skagway was once the gateway to the Yukon in the gold rush days. It's a ghost town until after breakfast and the tour empty out. Then the main shopping street is out of its mind. Go across one block and it's empty and no one off the boats goes above about 7th Avenue. Go across another block and you hit the runway for the airport!! Perfect for a plane nerd. It would be hard to find a quieter or busier spot!
The ferry journey up here was amazing. Each time you turned around there was a view better than the one before. As for wildlife there were a few groups of Porpoise and two Orcas rounding up Salmon. They were off in the distance but looked pretty cool.
