Lake Bennett to catch a train..

Bare Loon - it's over so soon !
About 14km from Happy camp over gently undulating terrain Bare Loon is a short walk. Our last camp: I am not sad, it's been a great memorable few days.
It's a fair hoof into Canada. Smiles all round at Happy Camp.
Happy Camp is only 12 km from Sheep camp, however there is about a 700m elevation change to deal with. Our feet are challenged with a boulder strewn ascent through the pass.
Sheep camp, our last night in Alaska.
"Sheep Camp is the last campground before Chilkoot Pass, making it the ideal staging area for the hike over Chilkoot Pass."
