It took us nearly two days to go from Dawson City to Whitehorse last summer. At one construction zone on the North Klondike Highway, we had time to fix and eat lunch and take a short hike before the pilot car showed up. Admittedly, we did stop for photos fairly frequently, but then, why else would we drive all the way to Alaska?
In one area west of Beaver Creek and within sight of the Alaska border, we drove over broken slabs of asphalt at a speed under 5 MPH. But, as Sue has noted, we were able to maintain a fairly constant 62 MPH between Fort Nelson and Fort St. John when we weren't in a long line of oilfield vehicles.
So, there is no average day; every day is different. For our trip, if we divide total miles by total days, we averaged less than 125 miles per day. And that included lots of Interstate highway miles and long days of driving in the Lower 48.
