The Drive to the US/Canada Border from Chicken, Alaska

We cross Chicken Creek
as we leave town.

The Top of the World Highway

is closed at the Alaska Border

each night from 8 pm to 8 am.

Eric is taking his time
on this uneven road.

This section of road has

just been repaired.

The State of Alaska Department 
of Transportation has a permanent
work station for Top of the World
Road maintenance.

One of the few bridges on the

Top of the World Highway.

Camping is available at the
Walker Fork Campground.

A short section of road has

been narrowed to one lane.

An Oversize Vehicle is
headed our way.

Eric pulls off the road as
far as he can.

The tractor trailer & our

motorhome would be a tight

fit on this section of road.

Oooh...

This vehicle takes a lane
and a half.

I'm happy to sit still & wait
for it to pass.

Eric drops our speed to 20

miles an hour & is prepared

to stop,  if needed.

We arrive at Boundary.

This is one of the oldest
roadhouses in this section
of Alaska.

The US/Canada

Border

We are back in the Yukon
Territory.

While we are in the Yukon,

we are three hours behind

the East Coast.
