Driving southeast from the Fairbanks area we had one final goal to accomplish: complete the drive on the Alaska Highway.

Driving north from Denali National Park, we were truly driving into a different part of Alaska. Mountains, which had been along our side for almost all of our travels in Alaska slowly disappeared continuing north and west, as our road Alaska Route 3 curved north and east.

Driving south from Soldotna to Homer was one that we had done before…well almost. A few days prior driving to our Halibut fishing trip we had driven almost all the way to Homer as there is only one road going south on the Kenai Peninsula. Today however, we would make it to the end of...

After seven days on the road and driving 1200+ miles we had finally made it to the Alaska Highway’s only major city, Whitehorse. We were pretty glad to have a city day. Even though driving the Alaska Highway is amazing, it is a rough & tough road and after a few days even the heartiest...
