ms Veendam Ported at Haines Dock.

A view of the ms Veendam as we headed back from the local brew house and a pint of locally brewed "Spruce Tip Ale".

Just across the street from the pub was the local history museum and down the hill was  the "Hammer Museum".  There is not a great deal to see in Haines but everything there is different and interesting in its own natural setting.

Many of the fair weather inhabitants head elsewhere for the snowy winter months and total accumulated snowfalls have hit 12 or more feet in recent years.
