Dalton Highway
The Dalton was developed as a haul road connecting the Yukon River and Prudhoe Bay during construction of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline. Road conditions vary and the highway is mostly a gravel road with many steep inclines. Travel best suited in June-August. Watch for active gold mining, the Yukon River, and Dali Sheep on Slope Mountain. Be sure to allow time for a photo op at the Artic Circle BLM Wayside Sign where the sun doesn’t set on the summer solstice and doesn’t rise on the winter solstice.
