My wife and I went through B.C, The Yukon and Alaska in 2018.
There are two things we recommend before going. One is to get the Mile Marker Book, also go on line and get the Alaska Tour Coupon Book, Not the digital. You can give the tear out couple to someone easier then the digital one. The coupon book has a lot of great coupons for the whole trip, highly recommended.
There is a hidden gem, the town of Whittier. The treat is getting there, a $15 toll and a 2-1/2 mile one way at a time traffic/train tunnel, turn your dash cam on. They have boat glacier tours, and history.
The gondola in Portal, seniors ride for $50 a couple and get a $40 voucher for food and gifts. We gave our 2 for 1 coupon to a couple behind us.
I had fun in Valdez, because my last name is Valdez.
History: A Spanish settlement in the 1700's. It was pronounced Valdez before the Spanish American War, later changed to Russian pronunciation of Val-deeze.
Have fun on your trip and watch the roads for animals and road conditions. We replaced 3 axles, 1 leaf spring bracket and leaf spring.
Happy trails.
