Beautiful. What is the (mountain) elevation in those pics? I was a little surprised how much snow we saw traveling west last month, especially at Mt. Rainier.

Don't know the elevation; sorry -
We did see the icebergs floating in Lake Superior on June 7th when we went through the UP, though... |

Been 2 times, 03 and 06 ,not with Pod 1994 chevy with over 100k miles and 03 Roadtrek. You might consider going with friend more fun that way, but if not, it's not that scary I would go again with my POD.
Advise- Drive on the top of your tank, Don't pull off on shoulders of road. Cell phones don't work. Just make sure your Tow Vehicle is in good shape. You can get hit by kicked up gravel, we fabricated front guards out of PVC and screen and ty wraps to minimize that. Info that I gave could be dated. Call a friend of mine he's a native Alaskan. Hes a nice guy and would love talk about it his name is Spike nice guy tell him Dan said to call him 1-800-842-7764 Not trying to sell anything.

I would assume you went right by our corner of the world on your way through. We're a little ways off Hwy 2 in Poplar Wis. I work for the next to the last grain export terminal on the left in Superior Wis. Our shipping season rolled of to a slow start this year due to the extreme ice conditions. Some of the latest ice we've had. It was a really tough winter around here for those that hate winter. Other than the cold in Jan and early Feb I didn't mind it too much. Nice long winter for sledding and trail grooming. |

I know this is kind of an old post, but .... THIS is the way we want to go to Alaska. Not only saves on some driving/gas but shouldn't this route also eliminate the hassle with Canadian gun regs? That's appealing!

I know a bunch of people who hunt in Canada and take guns with them. They even take them uncased on airplanes in Canada on the way to the hunt. What troubles are you expecting? |

I like handguns and, if memory serves, they aren't too welcome in Canada. But, I could be wrong.
