The Plan

We depart MA on July 16, taking the Trans-Canadian Highway (TCH) from Montreal to Banff.  Next, up to Edmonton, then Dawson Creek, where we get on the Alaskan Highway to TOK Alaska, and down into Anchorage to see Diana and John.  This will be about 4900 miles.  We are estimating 10 driving days and 8 goof-off days along the way.    We will be camping about half the time and moteling the other half.

This is the route going to Alaska

The return trip will take a different path: down thru BC to Victoria , Seattle, Vancouver, WA to see Dave and Verlee, then across WA, ID and Montana to see David and Mila; then on across northern US thru Minneapolis, Chicago, Elmira, Albany and back into MA. The return trip is about 5700 miles and will involve 11 driving days and 19 goof-off days.

     This is the route coming back:

Travel time and distances are approximate.The concept is to follow our interests and maintain some semblance of a schedule. If something unexpected occurs or we decide we cannot support driving 500 miles each driving day, we will adjust our schedule to maintain our approximate return date.  SRD is taking all his fly rods and expects to use them along the way. Token Liberal is bringing crochet projects, her camera and books on her tablet for entertainment while the rods are in use.
