As the title states, Mrelbe and myself are planning a trip to Whitehorse, Yukon spring / summer of 2015.


Really...we are just talking about it. Floating the idea. Kicking it around. Fleshing it out.


What say you?

I'm not sure if the shit-box will make it, much less the car ! But I'm game !!

Depends. If you bring the MGA....we'll definitely need a tow rope.

 

[rockcrusher]

That is quite an undertaking, and weather the weather is kind, quite a gamble...................

But then again, you live on the edge.............................

Why not hit Anchorage...................................

LOL

Went up to White Horse/Peace River once upon a time.

Ix nay on the othes clay. Its a touchy subject around here when discussing GTGs.

 

[mrelbe]

One way will be
6.5 days of driving
5200 km
Fuel cost approx. $ 750.-

Oh.. Well in that case I'll just leave mine at home.

 

[benzbarz]

They took my name and tag number at customs and told me they'd be looking for me if they didn't have a record of me crossing back in 30 days.

I had that 55 VW packed to the sunroof, back then, I think they figured I was trying to avoid the draft.

I found a copy of the Edmonton whole earth catalog and thought I was in heaven.

Couldn't figure out all those parking meters with electrical cords on them, though.

Selection #2.....I've never been through Thunder Bay. I think it adds 200kms.

 

[petesmga]

Thunder Bay was Werner driving home from our last GTG on IBA.

The all Canadian route via Thunder bay adds 130 km and 3.5 hours.

As long as you all are headed that far, come a bit farther West and I can probably dredge up a Ore/Wash contingent to catch up with you East Coast/Canadian yahoos! Course I guess I'd have to dredge up a passport at the same time !

I would be game for a drive up to northern BC!

There is no coastal road north of Vancouver. Possible join up locations would be Calgary or Edmonton.

I was wondering why you weren't going to take the Trans-Canada Highway...

 

[nobby]

Well.....I have never been across Canada by car. Mrelbe has numerous times.

That TCH around the lakes is a brutal kidney buster.....but I want to see that for myself.
