This year is our 3rd attempt at making our 3rd trip to Alaska. We went in 2008, and 2011. So far, 2019 looks pretty promising.
BTW, if anyone is interested, you are welcome to a copy of our itinerary. It contains information on campgrounds, campground rates and several points of interest (at least to us) If interested drop me an email at hollardawg45@gmail.com and I will forward a copy.
We go up through Alberta, crossing at Sweetgrass because of the substantially lower fuel prices, and pick up the Alaska Highway in Dawson Creek at Mile "0". Then, return down the Cassiar Highway through BC. Since we are somewhat advanced in years, we make quite a few stops. We only average about 122 miles each day.
We have been on the road for 12 years now, and we are looking forward to this one last big trip before we cut back on our travels.
