Welcome to the trail!

Here you will embark on a journey that leads you down a virtual trail of life set on the Chilkoot Trail during the Gold Rush. (This year was the 100th anniversary of the Chilkoot. Click on the sign below to find out more).

As you hike, you'll meet various people who were around during that time. From them, you'll learn about careers, personality types, and life. Lean on them for support, and remember their wise advice.

On the Career Trail, you will need a horse, a wagon, and a trail. The horse signifies your goals and dreams; the wagon, your skills; and the trail, your route of accomplishing your goals. These are the same three things you need in life--whether your goals are career or personal.
