Driving Conditions in the Yukon and Alaska
Driving conditions in the Yukon and Alaska can be more demanding than in other Canadian and American destinations. Roads often have unfinished surfaces and road shoulders are usually made of soft gravel. Considerable care should be taken when driving this unique and magnificent part of North America. We recommend that you book a four wheel drive vehicle.
