They stayed up there after travelling the Alcan highway for a couple of months. There was a medical emergency that forced all but him to fly back to the lower 48.He put the RV and truck on a barge and had it shipped back to Seattle. As everything for the most part has to be shipped to Alaska there are a lot of barges and a lot of competition to get a load back to the lower 48. He said the cost wasn't much more than driving and paying hotels. There is a huge ferry service in Canada that can accept RV's of all sizes. Those folks do this every day, several times a day so they know when guiding one in, they do it right. The app alert folks to exactly what's happening, when to move back to your vehicles and when it's your turn to start moving to the ferry. Then you go on to the deck, see live bands, have cocktails, eat, watch a movie, and so on. Like a mini cruise ship for a few hours. One of our RV friends are going to do the ferry hop from Vancouver to Alaska by taking a series of ferries up there and back in the inland waterway.</blockquote>
