We have exciting news to share! A few years ago we had an idea and started planning an epic journey. The time to take this journey is approaching. We’re taking our Jeep and our tent on a little trip… for 4 months, across the continent. We’ll start in Florida, drive across the U.S., through Canada, and into Alaska. Our Jeep was purchased and modified for the purpose of this trip and many similar trips to follow. We will be tent camping the whole way, staying at a hotel maybe once a week or so, in order to do laundry, stock up on supplies, make phone calls, etc. Other than that we will be off the grid and loving every minute of it! Planned stops include several National Parks – Canyonlands, Grand Canyon National Park, Yellowstone, Glacier National Park, Banff and Jasper in Canada, and Denali to name a few. We will also drive the Dalton Highway up to Deadhorse in Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, which will put us well inside the Arctic Circle. The Dalton Highway was featured on seasons 3 through 6 of the television series Ice Road Truckers. It is 414 miles of mostly gravel road, having gas stations only at mile posts 56 (Yukon Crossing), 175 (Coldfoot), and 414 (Deadhorse). That’s a 239 mile stretch with no gas available, so we’ll be bringing an extra supply just to be safe. You can never have too much gas… well, actually... oh, never mind!
