Alcan Road Trip

So on tuesday night this last week i left for a 4 day trip on the Alcan highway. those of you who dont know this is a full flege trip from alaska through canada to the united states. out objective was to arrive in provo on saturday afternoon in time for the 4pm BYU football game. so we started our trip, on tuesday night we left with a subaru outback completely full. we camped in glenallen which is only like a 4 hour drive from eagle river. the second night we stopped at like 2am at laird hot springs for camping. we pulled in late and left right when we got up so we never got to take a dip in the best hot springs ever. the next night we camped right outside of edmonton, alberta. then the next day we stopped in calgary at my sisters megans place and hung out for like 3-4 hours at her place and played with her kids and ate some of her freshly baked goods. it was delicious! that night we camped in Montana. the next day we made it in time for the game in provo. the best thing we camped out every night for free. we parked on the side of the road every time and jsut set up the tent or just slept under the stars. here are some photos:

CARTER. The beard was fantastic. I am sad I never got to see it in person. Luckily the mustache is pretty sweet too so I don't feel too deprived...
