Mile "0" on "The Alcan" Onward to Alaska



The guest blogger here; we arrived in Dawson Creek, where other caravans meet and start the trek for Alaska.


Jo and I at the "original mile 0"



The SMART Caravan ready to enter the "current Alcan"




To get to know our fellow travelers we played a round of playing card bingo.  We stopped at 7 places and collected a card at each location.  From those we had to make the best 5 card poker hand.  Didn't place.  Its hard to beat 5 aces.  Most of the locations were taverns and pubs, and of course we had to try out the local brews.

Also a round of "what is it"

Also traveled some of the original Alcan Highway and experienced some of the Army engineering
