Wow. Did the trip on my motorcycle in 1985! Rode entire way in the wide tracks sunk in the tundra by the frequent 18 wheelers - almost the only other vehicles i saw. No road to tutoyaktuk then… no tour agencies or hotels in inuvik. 3 hour delay as I waited for a herd of caribou to cross the road…. Incredible journey ! Thanks for the memories
While in Dawson City go up to Midnight Dome to view the entire city from above. Spectacular view of city, the Klondike and Yukon rivers. Was there in June 2019.
8:57 - hey it's Grandma's Kitchen. Had a flat tire repaired there and ate two musk ox burgers with two cokes while I waited for the repair to be done. Took a bathtub splash in the Arctic Ocean too.
Thank you for your information, exceptional, providing excellant information on everything. Spent 20 years Yukon, and yes went to Inuvik and Tuk, by plane, no road, stayed at the Pingo Park Loadge, an old rig drilling camp. Could have walked around Tuk and left, but had a room booked.....never left for a week - how come, well the lodge needed a cook for a conference.......got intoduced to whale blubber. Did drive to Inuvik. Road has shale which is a very fine slivered rock, cuts tires......lower tire pressure for a softer ride. The NWT sign and roadway is also a runway for planes....so you get off when you see a plane. Your photos of the rivers, lakes and landscape is also excellant ...... you tell it as is. Thanks for all.
Looks like you had great weather, you managed to miss the mud! I flew the surveyors for the Dempster in the early 70’s and its on my bucket list to drive it. Great video.
Great video ! I live off grid full time and lots to do but I am planning to spend 6 weeks in the Yukon next Aug-Sept & will be taking in the Dempster highway to complete the trip, Awesome info :)

So glad I found this video, as I’m working on a plan to do this drive from Toronto.

He didn't mention the suffocating swarms of mosquitoes, so I'm wondering if climate change has killed them off?
I hear you but it's still an epic drive!
Dempster High Way…
is it an ad?
Great video. IF only the audio worked...
do you have some tours for that ?

It's better and much more exciting to drive the Dempster yourself. I did, twice in June 2017 and 19.
