This large chipsealed viewpoint is located on Kluane Lake at Km 1642.1 of the Alaska Highway. It has no facilities, but lots of level parking and one of the best vehicle-accessible beaches on the lake. Note that the Bing Maps photo below is highly inaccurate now since the Slim's River re-routed in 2016 and the lake level dropped about 15 feet.

The viewpoint from the east.
The viewpoint from the west, which is the way we recommend to enter and exit.
Pulling an RV back onto the Alaska Highway is not recommended at the east end of the viewpoint, as it's very steep.
Looking west along the great beach - you can walk for miles.
