"Philip B. Low" at Five Finger Rapids on Yukon River, ca. 1899 |
||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
This photo shows the "Philip B. Low" taking the water route along the Yukon River to reach the Klondike gold fields. This route started at St. Michael, Alaska and took longer than the overland routes along the Chilkoot or White Pass trails. It was also more expensive because it saved travelers from the hardships of overland travel while carrying their prospecting gear. The "Low" was constructed by the Puget Sound Bridge & Dredging Company and operated by the Boston & Alaska Transportation Company. The "Low" lining up Five Finger Rapids. [Symbol]. No. 33. |
