Destruction Bay Map

Destruction Bay was a relay station for truckers during construction of the Alaska Highway. It earned its name when a storm destroyed buildings and materials here. A highway maintenance camp is located here.

Visitor services include dining, gas, lodging, souvenirs and snacks at Talbot Arm Motel. Inquire locally about boat rentals and guided fishing tours on Kluane Lake.
