Daily updates to the traveling Busse Bus
We left Dawson Creek early because we had a planned eight hour drive. The first 300 or so miles of the Alaska Highway were no problem at all – newer pavement divided road. After that the road started to get more dicey but nothing too bad yet. The drive wasn’t Read more
