midwestsolo Posted June 17, 2015 #1 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I am concerned about hiking to Yakutania Point as I am cruising single. Trying to find a tour company that will include this location. As a senior citizen, I am reluctant to hike by myself. Couldn't find anything on Dyea Dave or Chilkoot's websites. Any suggestions are appreciated.

sherryf Posted June 17, 2015 #2 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I doubt that you will find this as part of a tour. It isn't far or difficult, and it is very safe. You will see other people along the way and out at the point. I wouldn't be concerned about doing it solo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old As Dirt Mom Posted June 17, 2015 #3 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Hi, Midwestsolo: Some thoughts -- Maybe you could ask others on your Ruby Princess roll call if they would be interested in joining you? As Sherryf noted, it is a public trail and you will see others hiking or jogging there. As I recall, after about 3/4 of a mile the trail becomes uneven terrain, so make sure you can maneuver that. Beyond Skagway Tours offer a number of options, including a 3 hour custom tour, tailored to your interests and abilities. They are an excellent local tour company, but they are not cheap.

quack2 Posted June 17, 2015 #4 Share Posted June 17, 2015 It looks like a pleasant stroll from the ship. I'm planning on heading out there when I'm in Skagway in August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budget Queen Posted June 18, 2015 #5 Share Posted June 18, 2015 You can "see" this trail from the cruise ships. :) It's a very well traveled, easy short walking path. No way to get lost. And, no "tours" needed, or would include it, likely. Nice days- will have this trail well used, loaded with people. Great idea to ask around the ship for others who would be interested in joining you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midwestsolo Posted June 18, 2015 Author #6 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I will ask my roll call members if anyone is interested or planning on walking myself. :):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
