Chilkoot Pass (el. 1067 m./3057 ft.) is a high mountain pass through the Boundary Ranges of the Coast Mountains in the U.S. state of Alaska and British Columbia Canada. It is the highest point along the Chilkoot Trail that leads from Dyea Alaska to Bennett Lake British Columbia. The Chilkoot Trail was long a route used by the Tlingit for trade. During the Klondike Gold Rush of the late 19th century it was used by prospectors and packers to get through the mountains.
