| Coupla thoughts...
1) this is a relatively VERY traveled road. There is only one way to get to the power plants, and that is this road. In fact, when I got to the mid way stop, I was very surprised at how many people where there. So, it's not like we would drive off the road and 10 days later eat each other...
2) I REALLY wanted to do ALCAN. Timing at work prevented it but I am still, to this day, upset at missing the winter run.
I was thinking of starting Friday, and maybe wrapping things up Monday of Presidents week. That would be one day off from work for those who had a time contraint. Two if it ran late and we got home Tuesday. Again, EVERYTHING is tentative since so far it's just me!
Paul, I do have to tell you that winter should be totally different than non-snow driving there. Driving on dry road was a blast as it is basically speed-limitless, and the occassion frost heave ads a touch of excitement you just don't get down here in the states
The trip will be an event you will remember all your life.
Thinks about changing your mind. People (a lot of them) live up there. It's not like we'd be blazing the trail to Thule!
