Instead of going into Edmonton then to Calgary, I opted to hook a right on 40 out of Dawson Creek and hit up some back roads which paid off amazingly with jasper and banff national parks. Stopped in Calgary for the night to pick up some stuff for a friend and then headed...

A few pics from the ALCAN and beyond. Damn the 25 picture limit....

It's not bad actually. I'm at dinner right now but I'll work on pics/thoughts over the next few days/nights since I *SHOULD* be relatively stationary.

Nah I spent all summer on a boat in Kodiak. :) made a promise to a few very lovely ladies to bring them stuff from their hometown near Calgary. Can't break my promise haha.

There were rvs on the other side of Atigun pass but they were all hunters not families. Either way the Arctic Circle and coldfoot camp are pretty much where the fun stops lol. After the pass it gets boring unless you get lucky and see a lot of wildlife. I didn't see wildlife unless you count...

roger, i'll swing in and see what trouble i can find haha. thinking about hitting the glacier national park of canada before i hit glacier park in mt, so this may be my only time to get warm haha. i'm glad you washed your truck too, makes me feel better about washing mine. I was in the same...

Isn't that in nwt? I drove up there on my way up here but didn't stop there.

Quest, I will think less of you as a human being if you do not take the Dalton Highway all the way to Deadhorse (It is pretty much impossible to get to Prudhoe bay as the oil companies own it. you can take a $60 "arctic ocean tour" that takes you to a man made lake but not the arctic ocean)...

What are your plans if any for the ALCAN? I will be driving it in a few days after maintenance and some errands here in Fairbanks.

OK. I'm not sure the annex would fit on my rack but I'm interested in the tent for sure.

Alright then. Made it to Denali late yesterday afternoon and as expected the national park was booked so I opted for one of the campgrounds nearby. It rained all afternnon so i sat under the provided cover and smoked a cigar and drank sone of my kodiak Island brewing beer. If you are willing to...

I'll find some of the forums I researched for you when I get to Fairbanks. Keep in mind Dalton hwy is all haul roads. Most people who took rvs had a miserable experience and some companies don't allow it because the damage from rocks. But it can be done 25mph at a time.

Which part?

I'm interested but won't be driving through for another 2 weeks heading into Denali today.

Yeah, i miss my ford (sometimes) but tacos have definitely taken their place. And TW is definitely sometimes too good a diversion.
