Arizona To Alaska

This is the first post of many of our truck camper trip from Arizona to Ketchikan, Alaska. We need to be there June 1.

Last day in Arizona was a long one. Up at 0430, pack apartment, work from 0700 to 1930, drive six hours in the dark and find a place to camp. BRAINDEAD!

Arrived in Page, AZ sometime after midnight, VERY tired. Then drove north a bit, then east and found a place to camp along the Smokey Mtn Road.


Woke up four short hours later and found the Utah desert blooming.




Camped way down there somewhere. Drove this in the dark, after being up for 21 hours. Ugghhh.......


Rode some nice narrow washes to wake the brain up in the morning.


After riding, coffee, and a shower, it was time to head out. Rain was coming, and this road turns to snot when it's wet.










In SLC now for the week wrapping up last minute stuff, then heading out.........more at that time.
