Summary

| Description |
English: Copied from a slide taken in 1966.
In the background are Mount Hayes, Mount Hess, and Mount Deborah. In the foreground is our car, a 1965 Plymouth. We put around 15,000 miles on the car that summer. The only problem we had was a leaking radiator, which cost us $7 to have fixed. We did start the trip with partly worn tires and a complete new set. We had the tires changed in Dawson Creek before we started on the Alaska Highway. We were concerned about the 1200 miles of gravel roads (each way) so we bought some plastic domes that fit over the headlights. We had heard stories of people losing windshields from the stones kicked up by the large trucks, but we had no problems with that. We did lose a butterfly window to a stone, but that was on a paved road after completing the trip. |
