What Did It Co$t? — 8 Comments

  1. There’s a baseline expense average, how much above and beyond what you would have spent regardless? May not seem quite as bad with that perspective.

    • Actually, I didn’t mean to imply that I thought it was expensive. In fact, we do generally spend less money on the road than when we’re at home. This trip, even with the larger cost of fuel, was no exception.

  2. Greg and Karen..Welcome back in sunny and dryed-out California..
    You are quite an author and fotographer!
    I still can not believe that you guys went all the way to Inyuvik and then some..
    I saved All the stories and pix in the comp.and hope to be able to use them
    sometime soon…
    Just wonder of the Sprinter RV I have would be sufficient?
    Has a Mercedes diesel in it at 20 miles per gallon..
    Hope to get together with both of you soon..
    Regards,
    Tony and Marlene

    • Tony, the Sprinter would have NO problems on any of the roads that we drove Howie on. In fact, the only real trouble was caused by towing Ralph, who received all of the damages. I’m STILL cleaning the dirt and gravel out of him 🙂

  3. Thank you again Greg and Karen for sharing your wonderful trip. I am amazed by all of it and how brave you two were on some of those adventures and traveling on dubious “roads”. Your photo are spectacular and your write ups made me feel as if I were there. Am glad you are back safe and sounds. God Bless, Love, Irene

  4. Thank you, this recap really helps. I anticipated higher costs for fuel, fresh fruit and vegetables, however, I never thought about the lack of boondocking opportunities, my favorite way to see the US. Guess I will need to save up/anticipate/plan for a few more $. Can’t wait!

  5. Thanks for that report, as I said in an earlier reply, we are planning a trip next summer to Alaska. But we will be leaving from the east coast. So it was good to get a rough estimate. Safe travels to you all.
