Fodor's Review:
A redbrick building with wooden floors and soaring ceilings contains a small museum illustrating Seattle's role in the 1897-98 gold rush in northwestern Canada's Klondike region. Displays show antique mining equipment, and the walls are lined with photos of gold diggers, explorers, and the hopeful families who followed them. Film presentations, gold-panning demonstrations, and rotating exhibits are scheduled throughout the year. Other sectors of this park are in southeast Alaska.
