Waiting to cross the border
Back into Canada. We did about 470 miles today, mostly rain and gravel covered roads. We still averaged 75 mph, because we are manly men.
Staying in beaver creek, just past the border.

Run to Prudhoe Bay
We went up the "Haul Road", which was made famous by the show "Ice Road Truckers", 425 miles of mostly dirt, but again - great views!

Long Day
We had to display our route in two maps, one from Dawson City to Chicken, then from Chicken to Fairbanks. We crossed the border back into the US in a very remote part of country.
We hope to make a run to Prudhoe Bay tomorrow, depending on the weather, which would be about 500 miles.

Top of the World Highway
What a great ride today, it is hard to describe just how beautiful this road is, it is in middle of hundreds of miles of rolling hills and dramatic valleys. It was a mostly dirt road, with some paved areas, which offered challenges and the ability for some quick runs to 100 mph+ - all on over 100 miles of windy mountain road. We also stopped in Chicken for a quick bite to eat, and pick up a few t-shirts.
