We used to live in Ouray and the route we used was to go to Grand Junction, west on I 70 Green River Utah, cut NW to Provo, then north on I 15 to the Canadian boarder. Cross at Coutts-Sweatgrass and north to Calgary, Edmonton, cut NW to Dawson Creek and take the Alaska Hwy north to Delta Junction Alaska and then the Richardson Hwy on to Fairbanks.
There will be bugs up till a couple of good hard frosts, about the first week of October in the Interior around Fairbanks. We used to live in Nenana Alaska as well. Nenana is about 65 miles SW of Fairbanks.
Google thinks it is about 3,168 miles from Grand Junction to Fairbanks and they show 57 driving hours. That distance I can make in 5 days of hard driving but six or seven are more comfortable to all concerned.
