IX. Skagway, Alaska July 8, 2010
Skagway was known to thousands of hopeful gold rushers as the gateway to the gold fields.
Although it boasted the shortest route to the Klondike, it was far from being the easiest.
Over a hundred years ago, the White Pass route through the Coast Mountains and the
shorter, but steeper trail.
The gold rush was a boom to Skagway and in 1898 it was Alaska's largest town with a
population of about 20,00.

About Me
- Connie Hope-Cook and Author
- My first experience cooking was on a chair next to my mother. Then I learned to add spices and herbs, create appetizers, mix fruits and vegetables to make salsas and chutneys, use fruits to make jellies, jams, and experiment with all type of ingredents to make homemade soups. You can use side dishes to make a ho-hum meal into a excellent meal. My book, In Addition...to the Entree helps you put your meals together quickly and easily by making it enjoyable. Don't eat out every night, why not try cooking by help from Connie.
