Snag - access road at km 1911

Snag, Yukon was settled during the Klondike Gold Rush.  Later it was the site of a military airfield, established as part of the Northwest Staging Route that closed in 1968. 

In 1947, Snag had 15-20 airport personnel — meteorologists, radio operators, aircraft maintenance men.  My Dad, Jack Stalberg joined them in 1952. There is not much to see in Snag now because the site has been remediated/reclaimed. The road is narrow and twisty and required a 4x4 in 2008 due to high water levels.
