28 days and we’re off to Alaska.

[Rollin Ollen]

Hello all,
I’ve mentioned in other posts that our dream was taking our first major trip and the destination would be Alaska.

We’re taking 2 months for the trip with our first couple days being long driving days since we’ve taken the first part of the route many times, then we will slow down. Our plan is to cross the boarder at Carway AB unless someone might think another spot is better/easier?

We’re kind of running “Nomad” style. Meaning we’re not sure where we’re going until we get there. We do have a couple spots as a destination “Dawson City” and “Whittier Ak”. Anything in between we will just go with the flow.

Attached is our general path we plan to follow unless suggestions here or on the road changes our mind.

We’re getting pretty excited now.

Just a heads up. Highway 97 has been closed near Fort Nelson due to a Wild Fire. Lets hope it re opens sooner than later. There is an alternate route that you can take if necessary. Highway 97 through the Caribou Region of BC. It begins at Osoyoos and ends at Watson Lake. You can monitor highway conditions by checking DriveBC
