Whistle,
I think the best time to go is the end of June and beginning of July. The reason being the RV's start coming out pretty thick on the Alcan from July on. I think I lucked out on the weather on that trip. A lot of the highway is in the interior so I dont think they get a whole lot of rain compared to the coastal roads. The roads are in great condition up to the Yukon Territory, I didnt go any further north than that, They have the timber and vegitation cut way back from the roadway for most of it so you can see any animals along the way and it would be harder for one to jump right out in front of you.
When I lived there I would take my vacations to Oregon and there were plenty of places to stay the night. I bought a Milepost magazine and it lays out the entire route with mileage, gas, lodging, the whole nine yards.
Everyone should see Alaska and BC once in their life
Talk to ya later
