I haven't driven the Al-Can yet, but I'm going to later this year. But, I have lived in Alaska, in Fort Yukon. I loved it.

Drove up in 72, I was 9 drove from Hayward CA to Anchorage AK in a 65 Lincoln. It rained most of the way on the Alcan and most of it was gravel back then. Lots of construction and pretty much 2-4 inches of mud the whole way. Got to Anchorage on June 21 1972. Moved to Alaska! Drove down in December 89 from Kenai Ak to Las Vegas NV. Mostly paved where there wasn't snow and ice.

I've been to Alaska twice, but never been to the Yukon.

Alaska is beautiful and amazing. I loved the Kenai Peninsula, Exit Glacier (near Seward), the drive up to Denali, the wildlife, and all those gorgeous trees.

- You must have come up via ship? well the Yukon looks very much like alaska but minus the coast

- Actually, for both trips, I flew from San Francisco to Anchorage, and then rented a car that I drove up and down the main highway. I probably drove 1300-1400 miles each week while I was there.

- oh, just all the scenery in the Kenai Peninsula, and up through Anchorage to Denali Nat'l Park. It's a whole lot o' trees, but it's really pretty.
