 Good morning from Mile 0 of the Alaskan Highway! Ready for the next leg of British Columbia. Stocked up on food in Edmonton in the morning along with picking up differential fluid. Pete made quick work of adding more differential fluid and we were back on the road at a decent time.

 The bus at our campsite in Edmonton, AB. Left Lethbridge, AB around 11am. Stopped for lunch and fuel near Calgary, AB. Rained a bit there--free car wash on the road! That night, we stayed at another nice campground on the outskirts of Edmonton.
 Bear, King of the Road & Pete's Co-Pilot We departed Lewiston, MT mid morning. Crossed into Canada at the Sweetgrass, MT border crossing. Not a single issue at the border.
 The bus and Subaru made it to Montana in one piece! This was our campsite at the East Fork Dam near Lewistown, MT. We departed Aberdeen, SD at 9am. Today is scheduled to be our longest drive to Lewiston, MT, about 600 miles. Quick pit stop at Mina, SD to check and secure loads. Stopped in Mobridge, SD for lunch, gas and hardware store.
 This is a map of our 3,000+ mile route. Follow the stops we made in each town to camp over night in the blog! We spent hours loading the bus and the Subaru. Though we had laid out and organized everything days in advance, it took a lot of muscle and Tetris skills to load the vehicles.
 Pete installing the switch that connects from the battery to the inside of the cab. Today is the day we officially began our major prep work for our journey to our new home in Alaska. We've had the Alaskan itch for a couple years now and it's so exciting to see it take shape.

AuthorHello, I am Melissa, owner of Wild North Design. Recently, my husband and I decided to pick up and move to Alaska. This dream has been a couple years in the making and we are enjoying the journey so far. We love to learn and make all kinds of things. From wood craft, to painting, to vehicles, landscaping, building, exploring...we love it all! We are finding out that Alaska is a great fit for our restless minds and bodies! Excited for what the future holds for our expanding family! Archives
