Scouting the Route

Building the Alaska Highway producers Tracy Heather Strain and Randall MacLowry traveled the highway in July 2003, looking for locations, stories, and images. They returned in March 2004 to shoot footage for the documentary. Take a virtual road trip with Tracy as your guide, and explore the path of the Alcan through British Columbia, the Yukon, and Alaska.
