Skagway is a one-mile-long town in Alaska with about 800 year-round residents. It is a popular tourist trap in the summer when many cruise ships come into port. Surrounded by mountains it is a small valley where more than ten thousand people used to live during the gold rush in 1898. There they were either robbed of their money, shot, or somehow made it over one of two passes to Dawson where most didn't find enough gold for their trouble.
Wow, Skagway's small

Tourist: It's so much warmer than I expected
Resident: Yeah
Tourist2: Do y'all live in igloos
Resident thinks: (sarcasm) Of course that's why we have all these buildings around us, so we can live in igloos.
Out loud: yeah but only in the winter

A beautiful place with amazing people, surrounded by mountains and pristine glaciers. The water is the best you'll drink anywhere in the country. Skagway is so great, it is the 14th most visited cruise ship destination in the world, even though it's a small town of only 900 people. You can go fishing, hiking, camping, ziplining, dog mushing, ride a helicopter, see the Yukon, smoke weed legally, and live free like you were meant to. In the winter there are northern lights, and free booze. Skagway, Alaska is like paradise with a better view.
