RVing to Alaska & Yukon Ep. 1 | Planning and Preparing for the Absolute Ultimate Northern Road Trip

🚐 RV Road Trip to the Yukon & Alaska – Planning, Preparation, and Epic Adventure! 🇨🇦🇺🇸

Planning an RV road trip to the Yukon and Alaska? This video, the first in a 12-episode series, shares first-hand experiences, essential planning tips, and trusted resources from our 70-day, 17,893 km journey through Canada’s North and Alaska in summer 2022!

We travelled in our 2021 Ram 1500 and 2022 Rockwood MiniLite 2109S, exploring stunning highways, wild landscapes, and unforgettable destinations from Banff, Jasper and Dawson City to Denali, Valdez, and Homer.

In this video, we cover:
🗺️ How to plan a long-distance RV trip (research, reservations and resources)
📚 Must-have travel guides – The Milepost & The Church’s Guide to Camping in Alaska
📱 Travel and campground apps (RVParky, Campendium, iOverlander, GasBuddy)
🔥 Handling road closures, wildfires, and weather delays
🧰 Important RV gear and maintenance essentials for northern travel
🐻 Safety and comfort items to pack (bear spray, rain gear, bug protection, tools)

This adventure far exceeded our expectations — it was truly a remarkable northern RV experience filled with breathtaking scenery, incredible wildlife, and friendly people. Whether you’re a seasoned RVer or just dreaming about hitting the remote road north, you’ll find helpful planning advice, real-world lessons, and inspiration for your own trip to Alaska and the Yukon.
