Or, if you wish, you could take the Marine Highway Ferry from Bellingham to Alaska. Avoids Canada altogether and allows you to carry your guns.

As to boondocking...if you choose to drive up and back...in BC and Yukon there is an abundance of boondocking spots and although some Rest Areas are actually signed 'No Camping'...there is no issue with overnighting. Or you can just turn up a likely looking road and find a wide spot. Google Maps and Earth is ideal for the planning of this.
