261. Dyea Trail over Chilkoot Pass, Alaska. View looking back down the pass south from the summit of the pass, showing the mountains on each side of the trail this side of the summit. Principally the mountains on west side of pass are shown. There is a comparatively level stretch of the trail for a few hundred yards over the summit of the pass, and this view is from near the south or beach end of this summit stretch, the foot of the view shown being far below the point from which it is viewed. The nearest large mass of snow on the mountains constitutes Carter Glacier, which is to your left as you pass up the trail going to summit of Chilkoot Pass. This glacier is the one from which the flood came which swept away half od Sheep Camp the morning of Sept. 18, 1897.
