Amazon 7 #2 May 12, 2014 Well if you did not live up in the rarified air of the upper atmosphere... its quite nice down here at sea level. In my climbing days I have been snowed on in every month and in nearly every week of the summer months . Temperature and Pressure....a good thing to know when messing about in the bumpy places upon Planet Earth. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BIGUN 1,483 #6 May 12, 2014 Well, except for the swarms of mosquitoes the size of 747's this time of year. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillyVance 35 #7 May 12, 2014 BIGUN Well, except for the swarms of mosquitoes the size of 747's this time of year. Driving from Vancouver to Alaska at the right time of the year will net you thousands of bug splats on your windshield, or so I was told by a friend who made the drive."Mediocre people don't like high achievers, and high achievers don't like mediocre people." - SIX TIME National Champion coach Nick Saban Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You should go drive the AlCan... but a better drive.. is to drive to Dawson on the Yukon River in the Yukon.. then go east about 20 miles and get on the road that goes north to Inuvik in the McKenzie River Delta... do that at the Summer Solstice.. there is a world class party where the road crosses the ARCTIC CIRCLE. There is a monument there and a LOT of crazy people to party with in the midnight sun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
