My wife and I took an Alaska cruise during August of 2013. One of
the stops our ship made was Skagway, Alaska. Skagway is a small town with a population of under 1000, though that doubles during the tourist season. We wondered around the town, then took the White Pass and Yukon Route narrow gauge railroad from Skagway to Fraser, British Columbia. We then rode bicycles about 15 miles and 2800 vertical feet back down to Skagway. It was a great ride and fortunately almost all down hill.
We celebrated our ride by visiting a local Skagway bakery, Sugar Moma’s (382 5th Ave, Skagway, AK 99840). It is relatively small, but the cupcakes tasted great after our brisk ride. We tried to be good and shared a Pumpkin Spice cupcake. If you ever get a chance to visit Skagway, you will want to stop by Sugar Moma’s for a tasty
treat.
