Havealuagh, from Whitehorse I came back down highway 97 (Alaska highway) to Dawson Creek into Grande Praire Alberta and down to Jasper.
The other option is route down highway 37 taking in Stweart, Smithers and back to Prince George.
Now some of this is actually unsealed which car hire companies do not like and the other problem was that a number of forest fires were raging.
It was in August so high of fire season. I had been lucky and missed the big fire at Lillooet that burned for weeks. In Yukon they just let them burn out since no people around.
From Jasper I went across by Mt Robson, Clearwater, down to Kamloops, Kelowna, Vernon and into Washington.
Then came back up through Castlegar, Nelson, Cranbrook, Invermere and over to Banff, Calgary. Then back to Vancouver via Lake Louise, Jasper, Yoho National Park, Salmon Arm and Hope.
Only took 11,500 odd kms and visited 3 provinces and 2 states.
On the Alaska highway up by Fort Nelson, Liard River, Watson Lake etc, there is motel accomodation. Some are good some are not so good.
Most of the traffic is people, pulling u-hauls, moving up north or coming down south to live.
The tourist traffic is primarily the long haul RV drivers (usally retirees) and they usually stay along road at RV pulloffs or at camp sites. Also have the firefighters, the forestry workers, the road workers , miners and gas/oil workers competing for accomodation. Note distances are mesaured in terms of 3/4 hours. It is a very long drive up and down.
When going back I intend to fly up to Fort Nelson and then hire from there.
Otherwise just go straight for Whitehorse and work way back down to Watson Lake.
