When I run Google maps I enter Canada at Portal then up 35 to 11 to Saskatoon then up 16 through Edmonton then up 43 to hwy 2 or Tupper Hwy to Dawson Creek, then up 97 to hwy 1 into Alaska which changes to hwy 2. Lots of driving through Canada but seems to be the straightest route. Anyone run this route lately??
We pretty much took that route last June (although CA 39 & 6 rather than 35 to Regina). Good 2 lane roads for the most part, with the usual caveats on watching for the warning flags indicating frost heaves as you get further north. Towing an Escape 17B & a Scamp 16, we were far from a "big rig", but I didn't see any problems for them & saw many along the way.
Here's an index of our trip.
