Something not right?

Description

Old gravel pit that is right above the Alaska Highway. This is a big open area, facing west with some spots having a really nice view.

The place itself can host several of rigs, big rigs included (see access road), some may have privacy. Mostly flat. Tents & Pets friendly. Some fire rings available. No signs mentioning private property of forbidden camping.

Visually isolated from the road. You can still ear trafic from the first available spot. Choosing one of the spots more far away from the road may be more quiet. That being said, there is not that much traffic.

Access: There is a short and rough gravel road (100m long) to access it. A bit steep but not that much. We made it after rain with our 2WD van. High clearance probably needed. RV and big rigs may check by walking first, to ensure it is ok (not a big rig driver myself).

No amenities. 2 bars of AT&T.

Nice spot, quiet and close to the road. Spent the night here after getting gas at tok and on my way to the border. It was quiet and had great views as the sun set from the driveway area. The road is definitely rutted out but I had no problem with my 2WD ram promaster van. Clear overhead so my starlink had great signal. Not sure about cell coverage.

Nice site for an overnight. Up and away from the highway a bit. Not many level spots, bring some blocks. Good visibility for Starlink.

Report Check-In

There is a large area to park with a view. However, the road to it is steep and rutted. I have a 37' 5th wheel, I made it up but I did put it in 4 wheel drive. I would not recommend it for a big rig.
