Building the Alaska Highway!!

[Norm Cromie (RIP)]

Hi Hanno:

In the late 70's my wife and I took a trip to Alaska in the hope of seeing some of the old Highway before the new one was completed as the new highway had bypassed a lot of the old highway. It would have been a dream for you chaps in vehicle restoration. As you know when some of the vehicles broke down, rather than repair them they just pushed them off the side of the road. The only problem is you would have had a hell of a problem getting them back on the road. The trip sure played hell with our van, but seeing many of the old buildings and bridges in ruin the trip was worth it. Here are a couple of the photos we took.

Norm.
