alaska highway
WE drove all 1390 miles of the Alaska highway from the end of the highway in Delta Junction, Al to Dawson Creek, BC. It was built in the 40's by the military. It is amazing how ever they accomplished that over such terrain.
It is either a great adventure or the logest highway and smetimes it is a little of both.
Trees, trees, and more trees, Majestic mountains,Emerald green and aqua blue lakes,creeks and rivers all rushing east or west of the continental divide. West to the Bering Sea and East to the Artic Ocean.
REmote, remote, remote. No electric, No internet and no cell phones.
But the scenery is unbelievable. You can not view it and not know there is a God.
We camped along beautiful lakes and rivers and at the bottom of tall mountains.
22 hours of sunlight make for very long days and short nights.
Saw bears, moose and Lots of buffalo plus sheep and mt goats.
WE have almost wore out thetires on the little teardrop.
We are weary but happy and anxious toget back to Watson Woods.
