Alaska and Beyond Most stampeders stepped onto Alaskan soil in Skagway or Dyea on their way to one of the tortuous passes that would take them into the Yukon. Dense forests, rugged mountains, snow-covered trailes, and unforgiving weather awaited them. Illness, frostbite, accidents, and crime posed additional risks on the arduous journey ahead. Most stampeders crossed Chilkoot Pass from Dyea or White Pass from Skagway to reach Lake Bannett. There, stampeders built a variety of watercraft to travel downriver to Dawson City and the Klondike gold fields.
