Caption: Approximately a mile south of Fraser depot (also south of the turning loop), the WP&YR crosses the river which carries water from Summit Lake to Bernard Lake. I noted this scenic spot as I passed it driving north on the Klondike Highway some hours earlier, and hurried here to intercept the train I saw departing Fraser BC. The highway, river, and railway run parallel for a short distance south of here before diverging. For most of its route, the White Pass & Yukon Railway is far from the nearest road, often the far side of a river, lake, or rugged terrain.
If the weather cooperates, this is a great place to photograph a train. But it is Pacific coastal mountain territory so cloud and rain happen.
