Hello my friends to the North of me. My wife and I will be driving from Dillon,MT to Homer, AK. Bought some property in Seldovia a while back. Always wanted to drive the Alaska Highway and need to get the boat up there. So get to cover both bases at once. Leaving sometime around middle of May. Take a week or so going up.
Was hoping to put together a list of people along the way that I could contact in case things go south. Or when things go all good just to say hello.
Have met some of you already and visited with some of you as well. PM me if you would like. Appreciate all of ya. Tater

When in Tok, stop by and see Ted Hansen. He has a trapping supply place there.


Just doing what I want now.

Make sure you go through your boat and truck when crossing the border into Canada. Firearms & ammo specifically, spring assist knives are sketchy but I’ve never lost mine as they never asked about it. In lots of cases they’ll just turn you around, but sometimes they’re real dinks about minor stuff.
Good luck! I hope to make that trip one day too.

Get a front end bra hood protector and vinyl headlight covers for your truck. I made that mistake driving the Alcan with a new Ford Superduty... (it wasn't new when I got to Kenai). Big trucks coming the other way kick up speedy gravel chips.
