Road to Tuktoyaktuk, YT
Anybody have an idea when this road typically opens? Googling gives mixed results so curious how early people have driven it. Thanks.

It doesn't close, except short term, due to weather, so I'm not sure what you're asking.
The road is closed for a couple weeks ever fall and every spring at the ferry crossings. The ferries get pulled out of the rivers in the Fall , road is then closed until enough ice has formed to build the ice roads across.
In the spring, the ice road is closed for a couple of weeks waiting for breakup, and then the ferries get put back in the rivers for the summer / fall season.
The spring time opening is around the beginning of June, there is no set date, it’s up to Mother Nature.
