The Alaska Highway Drive began May 22nd and Ended May 31st

We started the drive on the Alaska Highway from Dawson Creek.

This is the Zero mile on the highway.

  1400+ miles later we are in Fairbanks, Alaska, the end of the highway.  During the building of the pioneer road by the Army Corp of Engineers in 1942, the official building ended in Delta Junction, Yukon, because there was already a road in existence from Delta Junction to Fairbanks.  The original road was built only to the extent that army supply equipment could travel over it.  It was the Public Road Administration in 1942-1943 who built the road to the standard that would support regular vehicles.  The PRA build all the permanent bridges and surfaced the road.
