Stakeholder Spotlight

The Alaska Highway is synonymous with grand adventure. A US war effort, it is 1,523 miles long and was built by a workforce of 30,000 over 9 brutal months in 1942. From Mile 0 in Dawson Creek to the terminus in Fairbanks, Alaska, the route offers amazing scenery and wildlife viewing. The highway is also sprinkled with unique stops and quirky characters.

Learn more about the Alaska Highway and the efforts to make it a National Historic Site of Canada, a highlight of the 75th anniversary celebrations in 2017.
