Link: Canada.com (UPDATED: See new photos of the shipwreck at CBC.ca.) A team of Canadian and U.S. marine archaeologists has discovered a long-lost shipwreck in the depths of the Yukon's legendary Lake Laberge that is being hailed as a "time capsule" from the Klondike. The "perfectly preserved" 19th-century sternwheeler A.J. Goddard -- named for a U.S. shipping merchant who pioneered Yukon River transport during the wild race for Canadian gold in the 1890s -- went down in a storm more than a century ago.
