Today we cruise the incredible engineering feet known as the Alaska Highway. Construction of the more than 2000 kilometer Highway officially began on March 11, 1942, about 90 days after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Dawson Creek, British Columbia is considered Mile Zero – the beginning of our trip up the Highway towards the capital of the Yukon – Whitehorse.
On this series powered by the Cariboo Auto Group, we'll be celebrating our community and sharing stories about what makes our slice of interior and northern British Columbia so amazing! Incredible sites from Williams Lake west to Bella Coola, the Goldrush Trail to Barkerville, the beautiful Nazko Valley, the Yellowhead to Prince Rupert and north to Alaska. Stories about the places you can only get to, by car.
