Traveling the ALCAN in Winter
My wife and I have traveled the ALCAN several times in the summer and twice by auto in the winter, but never in an RV in the winter. Our plan is to leave Alaska in early October and return in January...

When I was in the Boy Scouts, they had a badge called the 100 Below badge. Since it never got to -100, you had to spend enough nights out until they added up to -100 or more. There were lots of night at better than -50, so I couldn't see wasting time. We spent one night out at -62 and one at -57. No tents or heaters, just some lean-tos that we had build that fall for our winter camping.
The main thing I learned was to not sit around the fire drinking hot chocolate. The first night I had to get out of that sleeping bag twice to take a leak. After than, during the winter, I never drink anything after lunch. On our second night out, I didn't have to get out of the sleeping bag once.
