In Denali the Rangers Office had excellent displays and films for free and arranged free tours to their Alaskan Huskies kennels a few time a day. At Fairbanks the HA included excursion of Gold Dredge and Paddle Steamer was a highlight. At Skagway we thoroughly enjoyed a privately arranged excursion to the Suspension bridge in Yukon.
