Is that 30-40 days IN Alaska, or 30-40 days for travel AND time in Alaska? The trip from VA is probably going to take 2 weeks each way and those will be long days. You might be able to reduce that to about 10 days travel one way, but those are going to long travel days. Assuming 2 weeks travel one way then your time in Alaska is going to be 0-10 days if your estimate includes travel time. Remember too that a lot of the hiways you'll be traveling in Canada have a speed limit of 100Kph or 62 Mph.
That is total duration. I was figuring 10 up, 10 back, 7 in AK, 3 for difficulties and 5 emergency days. All I'm going by is internet mapping. Is there a more accurate way to plot the journey?
Doesn't sound like much fun to me.
