Alaska Highway, West Access Route, I-5 Through Washington, then 101 Through Oregon down to California, until finally breaking down on Highway 299, 40 miles out of Redding! : ) Also, where i lived in Fairbanks. Took plenty more, this is not all i have. Some Photos were taken before this long trip, areas i have visited in Fairbanks, and lived near. Any questions, feel free to ask.

Man, those pics make me pine for the Pacific NW. One of the few places i would ever consider settling down. I spent a year near Everett, WA and a couple months across the Cascades in eastern WA. I'm excited to be going back there. I hope to ride the rails in Canada. One of the best rides I've been on was along the Columbia River Valley.

What river is that you gotta pic of? Did you stay along the coast or did you go inland at all?

Yeah, i love it up there as well..nothing else like it and i think i might make my way back North when i feel im ready again, sure miss Alaska and the scenery. Canada too! That river i got a picture of, is the Fraser River in British Columbia, there was a train passing by way down on the right, i was really high up on some rock ledge watching the land. I have some more pictures of that area, the Fraser Canyon was epic as hell driving through..its like high desert out there, i did not expect that for B.C. Stayed on the inland through WA I-5..And Oregon i stayed the whole way on the coast stopping where i desired on Highway 101

Ive never ridden rails...but my desire to prospect that idea is increasing every week..id love to head North East, and check it out up there, Or directly across to Colorado. Ive seen the most Northern Rockies, now i want to see the Southern area of them.

damn, fraser river is fucking long. i'm actually going to be stayin right along it a couple hrs. north of the canyon by car. i noticed that BC looks a little more like eastern WA from what I've seen in the pics, a little like the Cascades region, too.
