Thanks for the information about traveling to Alaska, fcatwo. I did not realize that taking the ferry was so expensive. We had friends who drove the Alcan Highway in the early 60s. As I recall their account, the Highway was not completely paved at that time. Everytime they encountered a truck traveling in the opposite direction on the unpaved sections, they had to stop until the thick clouds of dust settled. Otherwise they were unable to see the roadway ahead of their car.

Driving north to Alaska does sound like a grand adventure though!
