Alaska on a Tracer 900GT?

[Burley]

Having the right equipment is a plus, but being adventurous is essential!  12 years ago I took my Toyota van and towed a large tent trailer with 2 kids from Vancouver Island well into the Yukon and then over to Chicken Alaska and then back down (try the Stewart-Cassiar highway (#37) on the return trip for an alternative to the Alaska Highway).  Most people doing the route we were doing were in F250s/Dodge Rams etc. and thought we were nuts.  In retrospect, we were pushing it a little at times.  The van was new then and I probably took a few years off its life but it's still running and now my 21 year old son and I are talking about doing the trip again (but going all the way to the Arctic).
