Yeah, I'm wanting to go 2017. I passed on caravanning with a friend this year. I asked the wife if she wanted to go....in the cabover. NO. Well maybe.
I need advice on routes. Is there any reason to get on HWY2 at Whitehorse and go to Dawson and on to Tok and Fairbanks, other than avoiding seeing the same scenary twice on HWY1 from Whitehorse to Tetlin Junction on the way back? Or just take HWY4 from Watson Lake to Carmacks and on to Dawson. Then south on HWY3 to Wasilla and back to Tok. Is the HWY37 loop to Prince George BC, then Kamloops and into Washington good stuff? I wouldn't mind seeing coastal Washington and Oregon.
It'll be a bunch of miles from Houston.
Going to Dawson City for us a pleasure, fun little town with lots of history. Top of the World hwy is nearly all gravel but is a good road, if dry it is dusty, if wet muddy your choice which is better. RV wash in Tok. If you're are going to see the country is take different route each way. Ak hwy up to Alaska, Cassir on the way back down stop Hyder to watch bears then down the West coast. Don't rush the trip.
