Dawson City Museum

034
  Free ebook from Amazon - The Great Gold Rush

  The museum focuses mainly on the gold rush but also covers a little about First Nations people and the region’s geology. Look for the mannequins in the displays – the faces are casts of local people with an accompanying story about their life in Dawson City. An interesting  movie, made in 1957, is shown in the theater.The annex next door houses train engines and other large equipment.

  The boardwalk sidewalk has a step up from the street – no ramp. A wheelchair lift could be deployed to sit directly on the boardwalk. The wheelchair entrance is in the back of the building with a good ramp to the door. The theater has movable seating. The annex building has a step at the entrance-no ramp.

  Parking is available along the street.  Museum
