Wish You Were Here – Postcard From Crossing the Arctic Circle
Karen and Riley Caton’s 2014 RV Road Trip to Alaska
We’re Karen and Riley Caton, full-time RVrs on a three month, 7,500 mile round-trip journey from Washington to Alaska. Join us as we travel up the famous Alaska Highway (formerly the AlCan), visit towns and villages, photograph wildlife, and explore the tundra above the Arctic Circle.
POSTCARD #9 FROM CROSSING THE ARCTIC CIRCLE ON THE DEMPSTER HIGHWAY IN THE YUKON, CANADA
There are only two places you can cross the Arctic Circle in the Yukon and Alaska. Our first time crossing 66°33’ North was on the Dempster Highway; we’ll do the second one on our way to Prudhoe Bay next week.
The Arctic Circle isn’t the only reason to travel the Dempster. Most people travel the Dempster to see the tundra in its arctic glory. The landscape seems to go on forever and the wilderness is just steps from the road. It doesn’t go on for miles; it goes on for 100’s of miles.
