This blog is set up to record our adventure as we travel North America in our 5th wheel. We just retired this year and are staying at Wildwood Rv and Golf Resort.

Top of the world and the Top of the World Highway

This is the top of the world.


















This also top of the world

















THIS ALSO TOP OF THE WORLD

















Top of the world highway connects Dawson City, Yukon to Tok, Alaska.
On the Alaska side, the highway is gravel from the border to Chicken, Alaska. Top of the World Highway is narrow, winding road. There are no guard rails. Some steep grades and some soft shoulders. But what great views and scenery. The road between Chicken to the border is also referred to as the "goat trail." We were told various reasons why we shouldn't go on the Top of the World Highway with our 5th wheel. But, all proved




to be wrong and the trip was well worth it. As any unmaintained road one must use wisdom and travel at a slower speed.
