Reviews of Sign Post Forest (Dance School)

Nina Pham

70,000+ signs! Very cool… bring your own sign from home to add to the collection.

Carol Faust

So many signs!! From all over the world! Fun to walk through and check out all the different places people have come from to place their sign.

Brooke Bonner

Cool and somewhat surreal to come upon this quirky park after weeks on the road! Worth checking out!

Ana De Leon

One of our stops from our road trip to Ontario. The Sign Post Forrest in Watson Lake is an interesting tourist spots and pit stop when you are leaving the Yukon via Trans Canada Highway

Bill Ducat

Ok, I was not really looking ahead on the highway, and we happened across this amazing place. Stop stretch, find your home town or some other sign that you find meaningful!

Omar Tsai

Great place to explore what others have put here already! Our family also put up our own sign!

Time Traveler

The Signpost Forest in Watson Lake was fascinated. The US army soldier who had been homesick and put the signpost at Watson Lake in 1942 while they built Alcan highway from Dawson Creek to Whitehouse during the Second World War. In 1986, there were over 5000 signs, including the original signpost of dated 1942. Today it has over 90,000 signposts, but the old "1942" signpost was no longer there. The information center at Signpost Forest was friendly and helpful.

My family LOVED stopping here. So many great signs from people from all over the world.

Dylan Soo

A cool forest of 80,000 plus signs in Watson Lake. A place where there a places to hang out, a stage, and a history of people whom have travelled along the Alaska Highway. This is definitely a must see stop!

Hannah Peek

It's such a strange attraction that just keeps getting bigger. Search for your own country, and you'll find it. Search for even your city and you'll probably find it. Leave a mark for other visitors to know you were here. It's just the human version of a dog marking on a post.

James Espey

Interesting to walk around and see all the various locales that are represented. Visitor Center on the property open 8a-8p from late spring to early autumn. Staff there super friendly and helpful in terms of the local and regional areas.

Adam

Interesting and worthwhile stop when going through Watson Lake. You can browse unique personalized signs from all over the world and/or make your own if you so wish. Right next to the tourist centre as well where they have free coffee, wifi and useful information.

Benjamin Berthold

An Amazing variety of signs from all around the world. How did they get there? A feast for an active imagination that can enjoy wondering about the adventures of other travelers.

Ryan Divine

This place is definitely worth the stop. It's awesome!

John Thomas

This place keeps growing and is fun to see the many signs people have put up over the years. I found one that my wife and I had put up three years earlier. The signs are made from every material that people had around. You could spend a day looking at signs and not be able to read them all. If your driving stop and add your sign. We had to use a ladder we had in our RV to find a space.

Kayla Grasley

So interesting to see every unique sign left

Spencer Watson

Really neat place to visit and you can spend hours looking at all the signs.

Brick Family Adventures

An amazing stop. The amount and types of signs that are here are outstanding and it is nice to see that everyone has their own way to leave a signature

Lisa Friend

Traveled through 20+ years ago and definitely didn't have as many signs.

Kaitlyn Frey

So cool! Could have spent hours here if it wasn't so chilly!

Alannah Monica

This is such a neat little spot sort of in the middle of no where, but you can't miss it passing through Watson Lake. It's definitely worth a stop - to add your own license plate or sign! Apparently this spot has the most stolen property in one area! It's like an art installation meets graveyard. You can see signs from all over the world, and many license plates and wooden posts with names and locations etched in. As you walk through the "trees" of signs and license plates you can't help but wonder the stories behind every piece. Did that person drive without a plate? Did they get caught? Were they on their way to Alaska? How did such a big sign from Germany get here? Is that a population sign from a small town in the states? Did they plan to steal it and bring it here or was it just sitting in their car? Did they fly with a sign? So many questions but no real answers.

Who couldn't love this place???? So much to see from all over the world! I can't wait to send my own contribution!!!

Troy Remy

I'm not a "touristy" sort of person and usually do not care to stop at points of interest. That being said, this place is sooooooo cool! A must check out kind of place. Even found a sign from my home town in Colorado!

Amanda Woods

Really cool touristy spot that worth a stop or atleast a slow drive by!

Kip Nissen

The Sign Post Forest is always a stop, to check on our sign and remember past trips driving the Alcan.

Devipriya Raju

Though this place hasn't anything apart from the licence plates.. It holds a historic significance and a good place for taking shots. I would recommend tourists to get something in remembrance of their trips and add that to this post.. Many have done and it's a good memory..

Steven Mansour

Quirky little stop with signs from all over the country / continent / world. Fun to walk around the displays and try to imagine all the stories of folks who've passed through here before. Area is kept clean and it's real easy to find (right through the main street of town, on your right before leaving towards Whitehorse). You can also bring your own sign to leave here or graffiti one of the farm vehicles with a sharpie.

Anjith Jayaraj

Great place to see variety of boards from all over the world. You can put up your own sign post here.

stan cook

Bring your sign and drop it off. Such a wonderful place to look around and wonder. Nice little break.

Angela Carter

Special place started in 1942 by a homesick soldier from Illinois who was working construction on the Alaska Highway. It is spectacular! Too many signs to count...and you can't stop looking!

LeeAnna Springer

Easy pit stop, rest place to get out and stretch legs. Kids love it because in the center of the signs there are old tractors they can climb on and take pictures. Benches throughout to rest and view signs. Unique and cute.

Martin Hall

Very interesting place, signs and tags an such from all over the world, at the beginning of the Alaskan Highway

Desmond Hedderson

This is a fascinating place to stop in Watson Lake. You really could spend an entire day wandering through the truely huge place. With dozens of signs and small notes to read you really can get lost just wandering through searching for your home town and wondering what the stories are for the people who have left these behind.

Allison Shrestha

I thought this place was really fun. Signposts from all over the world. If you're driving through its worth a stop. Right off the highway!

Light

Loved the sign post forest! We traveled from Ontario and were able to find a spot for our sign. Such a cool place :)

Jeff Samson

Great place to grab gas, lunch, a few groceries and some great tasting Yukon Gold beer.

Michael James

The signs stopped in time! You could spend hours reading everyone’s signs, definitely a must see when travelling through!

Brent “Soonta REtire” Dreamer

Not sure how many signs are here but I am guessing upwards of 85 or 90,000. So cool seeing large signs from all over the world. We put ours up near the K.Y.D. sign as we watch them on YouTube. A must see if you're passing through Watson Lake, Yukon.

Sharp Life

Neat stop. Wish I knew about it sooner to bring a sign. Neat idea. Cute cars for kids to play on. Kids loved it and wanted to stay longer.

Jerry Yen

Cool attraction in Watson Lake by the Alaska Hwy. See if you can find signs from where you’re from.

Kayla Elenbaas

Such a cool find on our road trip

James Campbell

Awesome to see sign posted from all over. Look for a sign I left in 2008 grown so much needle in hay stack.

doug richards

Nice to see, left our own sign, a retired license plate.

Jonathan Gilder

What a history... The entire story can be found at the Museum across the street.

Keith AKA LastRide

We were just passing through Watson Lake when we stumbled upon the Sign forest. WOW, allow for a couple hours to read the 10,000 plus signs.

jordy grovestine

Amazing place so many neat signs.

Ken Godwin

So many signs, so little time! What a great place to take a break from driving to walk around a bit. There are signs from all over the world!

David Ellingsen

Really interesting to walk through all the signs. You can get screws (and borrow a screw driver) at the very helpful Visitor Centre.

Michael Ackeral

It is a very interesting place to stop on the road to Whitehorse. People from all over the world have put up signs from where they are from or just to commemorate their trip. There are some very interesting signs. Would recommend anybody stopping there to have a look. And also bring their own sign to add. As spaces fill they just add more posts to put up more signs. Don't know how many signs there are but must be up in the thousands.

Donna Bornholdt

Way bigger then I expected. What a sight!

Gina Mason

Cool history started by the Army folks that built the Alaska Hwy. Lots of folks leave their mark here.

Amanda C

Really cool spot to check out. Plates and signs from all over.

Tony Yakimchuk

Something unique and different with signs from all over the world. Interesting to wonder about and look at while you take a break from driving.

Jenny

We didn’t even know about this otherwise would of brought something from Australia! Loved walking through and seeing all the different licence plates, took a pic of all the provinces we travelled through! Has picnic tables and is right by a fuel station and information building, we had our lunch here on our way through.

Llama Rama

The visitor center is moved next to the sign forest in an athletic building. Apparently the pipes froze in the actual building. It's a great experience, with a movie. The staff are amazing, and friendly. There is quite a hodgepodge of signs in the forest. Be sure to bring a sign with you. It is quite amazing that it all started with a pole holding "distance to" signs. We drove a thousand miles and back in two days, just to visit this historic place.

Cj

Really cool... could walk around here for hours there is thousands of signs from all across the world.

Sharon Apple

Fascinating collection of signs from around the world - especially fun to find signs from my hometown !! Far too many to see them all, in one visit. The replica of original "sign," along with the history of the US soldier who left his mark in the Yukon, is on display in the visitor's center on the site. A unique, "won't see anywhere else" experience!

Hatata Butata

It's just nostalgic to see something left by eight yourself years later, or by someone else that made the epic drive also. I can't give this place 6 stars but it should get it.

Patti B Johnson

This place was so cool! All kinds of signs from all over the world. It really made me feel connected.

Teresa Raymakers

Lots of signs and plates from all over the world. Yet to find my NS plate. Going there to pave airport Watson Yukon
