None of that can be driven to except Stewart and Hyder. It is accessible by ferry, like the Alaska Marine Highway System.
Thanks for the route. That is exactly the sort of small incursion into AK I was looking for. A previous poster mentioned a route that goes in and out of NWT that will do nicely. Another short trip appears to be able to get us in and ot of the Yukon.
It is all loose planning at the moment. It just depends on how much time we take getting to BC and how much time we spend in the rest of BC. We do not drive vast distances in a day 200-300 miles max, less if roads are challenging because of mum’s limited tolerance (and ours), and we all would just really see the local sights of where we are and not just rack up miles.
Some great ideas for campsites and things to see. We usually do not make many reservations far in advance but it looks like this trip we would be wise to. Any more info is welcome. Thanks to all contributors.
