Trucking Dalton Highway

The trucks racing north- and southbound on the Dalton Hiway along the Alaska Pipeline are fast, especially the ones heading south, most of them are empty as they have unloaded all supplies in Deadhorse at Prudhoe Bay, one of the US' largest oilfields. It reminds me of the times I have spent behind the wheel driving trucks.   "...on foot on the pedal, the other in jail..." as a colleague of mine called it. Always overloaded, always fast. I am sure no difference for those guys. No cops in the bushes though, up here.













There is no other place on the continent where you can drive as far North as on Dalton Highway to Deadhorse.
