Old Church at Bennett British Columbia - RPPC Postcard SP24

Real photo postcard (RPPC) showing the old church at Bennett, British Columbia. Bennett was a boomtown during the Klondike Gold Rush of 1898 and is now a ghost town on the shores of Bennett Lake, straddling the BC–Yukon border. The Gothic-style wooden church with a pointed bell tower stands on a rocky, sparsely vegetated hillside above the lake, with steep bare mountain slopes rising dramatically to the right.
