\n8. Going down the Brooke Range to the south, trucks roll again. They were stoped during the rain, too slippery for them. It must be said that here, hills have impressive percentages! Some also have evocative names: Beaver Slide for example, a 22% slope. VLV drove it down with 4WD 4×4 and not faster than 10 mph in the rain, in six inches of mud… Trucks then stop to wait for the road to dry.

\nthat’s it for my fast south-north-south through Alaska via the Dalton. A barely arrived that I already want to go back..! \ud83d\ude09 I hope I managed to transcribe some scenes of these beautiful northern landscapes that fascinate me…
\n 
\n 
\n15. On the road to Anchorage, I made a detour to the beautiful Hatcher Pass.
