Perched high on the South Klondike Highway near the White Pass summit, the Kiwanis Inukshuk greets travellers crossing between Alaska and Canada. Built in the inunnguaq style by regional Kiwanis clubs, this human-shaped stone cairn stands as a symbol of friendship and guidance. Overlooking rugged peaks and sweeping valleys, it serves as both a scenic photo stop and a reminder of the enduring connections between communities.
