Holiday food hasn’t particularly helped me either, but Alaskan fried halibut is really good.

There are trucks on the highway, and construction equipment, but not lots of truck traffic like a major highway further south.

We are travelers more than campers, but we travel slow, and stop for built in rest and chore days. We tend to base somewhere for several days and day trip. For an Alaska trip like this, we would want...

We really enjoy the BC and Yukon provincial campgrounds. If you need hookups, you are usually out of luck, but they are typically nice parks. A side trip for some who might be interested in mining...
