Alaska Road Trip

How much should i expect to spend going one way?
Probably at least $600. This will be your main cost if you decide to camp along the way.

How hard is it and what do you need to cross the borders?
It's not too bad, especially going from Canada to Alaska. They will just ask you basic questions. You will need a passport, though.

How were all the roads on the way up?
During the summer, there are several spots where the permafrost has thawed up in Yukon and Alaska and so there are pot holes. Other than that, the roads aren't too bad anymore. The speed limit usually is around 55mph once you get up in the middle of nowhere. In the winter (October to April) the roads could get ugly quickly with all the snow and ice.
