| Water Tower's History (01-05) This White Pass & Yukon Route railway water tank (WP&YR) was moved to Montana Mountain, to the south of Carcross, in the early 1970s. Its original location is thought to have been either Carcross or MacDonald Creek. Used as an ashram (prayer hut) by a Whitehorse Buddhist group, it was badly vandalized and completely demolished a few years after this picture was taken. This view is to the north.

| Water Tower's History (01-05) This White Pass & Yukon Route railway water tank (WP&YR) was moved to the most recent reincarnation of the Venus Mine (1979) for use as a storage silo. It likely came from either Carcross or MacDonald Creek. It was removed or destroyed during a mine cleanup over the winter of 2004-2005. The Venus silver mine was located approximately 17 km south of Carcross on the South Klondike Highway (Whitehorse, Yukon to Skagway, Alaska), 2.9 km North of the Yukon-British Columbia border.
