Alaskan Trucker's Wisdom: Taking It Slow on the Rocky Road
Alaskan Trucker's Wisdom: Taking It Slow on the Rocky Road
In this short and reflective video, I share a candid discussion about the importance of taking it slow on the Haul Road. Especially when traversing 500 miles on this rough terrain. Drawing from personal experience, I recount the unfortunate incident of my windshield being broken during my last trip.
Traveling along mostly rock and dirt roads presents its own set of challenges, and incidents like these serve as reminders of the need for caution and vigilance. Join me as I discuss the lessons learned and the wisdom gained from this experience, emphasizing the value of patience and mindfulness in every journey.

    Do the Dalton highway runs pay more? Is it by the mile? Or by the run? How often do you do runs to the Prudhoe bay?
