Stoy JovicHOST
Yeah, obviously.
Stoy JovicHOST
But there's the Dalton Highway.
Stoy JovicHOST
That's, like, clay, mud, and dirt for a good portion of...
Stoy JovicHOST
I think once you get past a certain point of Alaska, the rest of it is just dirt road.
Mike JollyGUEST
70 miles an hour at least.
Brian BrockHOST
Yeah, I did the Dalton Highway with him at that speed.
Brian BrockHOST
I was on a rented bike, he was on his.
Mike JollyGUEST
Yeah.
Ari HenningGUEST
Well, here's the thing, Jim.
Ari HenningGUEST
If you're gonna ride the Dalton Highway, you're gonna ride from Anchorage up to the Arctic Ocean, and you do it on a GS, whoop-de-doo.
Ari HenningGUEST
Easy ride, right?
Jim MartinHOST
Oh, easy now.
SnookHOST
At the time, I had just graduated college and moved from Texas to Alaska out of desire for, you guessed it, adventure.
SnookHOST
had a job doing stuff i liked it paid well and gave me enough vacation days to get out and do something really adventurous every once in a while one thing i'd had on my bucket list since moving north was driving the dalton highway for the unfamiliar that's a generously highway that goes from fairbanks to prudhoe bay on the arctic ocean it's a 500 mile 11 hour drive in the summer But thanks to work realities, I wasn't able to get out there until early autumn.
SnookHOST
By early autumn, the snow had started, but the plows were still able to keep the highway pretty clear, and I was driving a 95 Toyota Land Cruiser kitted out for expeditions.
SnookHOST
I loved that thing.
Tracy Stone-ManningGUEST
Of course, it will be open to the public.
Tracy Stone-ManningGUEST
The Dalton Highway was not meant to be a public road, and the pressures became too great, so they opened it to the public.
Tracy Stone-ManningGUEST
Um, and people today, like I was talking to elders who talked about the Dalton Highway like it was put in two, two years ago.
Mark KenyonHOST
Hmm.
Tracy Stone-ManningGUEST
Talking about the changes they saw from caribou as a result of that highway going in, and we should put highway in air quotes.
CodyHOST
I think you guys are really gonna enjoy that, um, video, um, with the two red coats.
CodyHOST
And then the next video after that will be myself, Kyle, and my dad, Robbie, where we went to Alaska last year to the Dalton Highway to chase caribou.
CodyHOST
That's something we had never done before.
CodyHOST
I had a blast on that, man.
Steve SummersHOST
I go to the mailbox this past day and [upbeat music] pull out a postcard.
Steve SummersHOST
It's, uh, the, the Dalton Highway in Alaska, The Haul Road.
Steve SummersHOST
And I flip it over, and lo and behold, it says, "Hey, Mike, Mike, Mike.
Steve SummersHOST
[laughs] Hey, it's Horsefeathers here in Coldfoot, Alaska." That's, that's, that's all the message he had there.
JillHOST
That means no bathrooms, no gas, no restaurants, no nothing but wilderness and pipeline.
JillHOST
It's the Dalton Highway in Alaska, and it connects Coldfoot Camp and Prudhoe Bay, and it's also been named one of the most dangerous roads in the nation.
JillHOST
All I think of is Jeepers Creepers.
JillHOST
I know that was in the Midwest, but there's nobody around, nothing to be found for 240 miles.
Connor ClarkHOST
Well, yeah, so he got his head back and it's actually, I mean, it's, it, it could've been so much worse.
Connor ClarkHOST
I was telling Andy that my, uh, brother his first year or second year maybe guiding in Alaska, um, went to the Dalton Highway, killed a Pope and Young.
Connor ClarkHOST
First thing he's ever killed with a bow, kills a Pope and Young caribou.
Andy IvyHOST
[laughs]
SnookHOST
It paid well and gave me enough vacation days to get out and do something really adventurous every once in a while.
SnookHOST
One thing I'd had on my bucket list since moving north was driving the Dalton Highway.
SnookHOST
For the unfamiliar, that's a generously highway that goes from Fairbanks to Prudhoe Bay on the Arctic Ocean.
SnookHOST
It's about five hundred miles, eleven-hour drive in the summer, but thanks to work realities, I wasn't able to get out there until early autumn.
