"The fieldwork on the Whitehorse-Dawson Overland Trail began in 1993 after a study, funded by the Northern Research Institute, on the methods of recording the historical resources. It was realized then, what a large project it would be, considering the distances to cover, and the fact that the original routes are mostly away from modern access. The trail was divided into four areas of study, determined largely by the difficulties of the river crossings. A long-term plan was made to priorize recording the physical remains of the trail while there was still evidence, and then accumulate archival research.
The present report is a result of the third field-work project to be undertaken, designed to examine, locate and photographically record the roadhouse sites, farms and engineering features associated with the Whitehorse-Dawson Overland Trail. The first two projects covered the area from the Pelly River north to Dawson, and this year's field-work was from Takhini Crossing to Carmacks. The main trail between Carmacks and the Pelly River remains to be recorded." (from INTRODUCTION)
