  • What to Expect: Driving Canada's ALCAN highway, also known as the ALASKAN HIGHWAY
    Although there are many incredible national parks like Banff and Jasper, huge hot springs and quirky stops like "The sign post forrest" ... in this #short we simply cover the basics of what to expect during your drive.
    Expect wildlife: Buffalo / bison, moose, caribou (reindeer) porcupine, dall sheep, black bear and even grizzly.
    Expect: Gas prices to go up! They charge by the liter and the prices are posted in cents, not dollars so it will look different than you're used to.
    Gas stations along the Alcan /Alaska Highway are really spread out. How many are open will depend what time of year you go at.
    This video will be applicable whether you are driving through with no stops or taking your time 👌
    Safe Travels!

    I would rather spend 9 minutes understanding the excitement of your life than 41 seconds

      We'll make some longer videos coming up soon, but youtube only allows their "shorts" to be 1 min. Glad to know there is interest for the longer ones aswell!

    I saw stone sheep, Dall sheep, black bears, a marmot, caribou, bison and moose
    But the moose wasn’t on the highway but it was in Canada

      The last time we drove through was September of 2021! We do the drive about once a year since my husband is from Alaska. Beautiful drive!

      It helps! But we've had friends get through with just a drivers license/birth certificate

      Just ask, ffs. “Question” and “Quick question” make the annoyance of being asked questions exponentially more annoying. Use Google

    4 hours with no gas? That’s not good I feel a lot of cars would run out of gas

    • @LKseims
      @LKseims  8 місяців тому

      We definitely had a couple close calls! It doesn't hurt to bring a lil gas tank with you, but it also depends what time of year you go (a few more gas stations are open in summer)

      Thats 6 bucks a gallon. That's freaking ridiculous. We freak out here when it gets to 4$ a gallon. Anything over 3 is bad. Back in like 2018 we had gas that was 1.50 a gallon

      @ws6069 We actually have a full-length UA-cam video with a ton of info! (So maybe do 2 secs of research before leaving snarky comments on ppls vids?)
      But the views are half the reason ppl drive this road so, yes, we made a short highlighting those.
