[QUOTE="3Roosters, post: 174481, member: 1351"] MapQuest says it is about 47 hours to Anchorage. I have done other map quests to other locations and have found the hours that MQ spit out are often times way too conservative..ie...I made better time than MQ projected..nooo..I don't have a heavy foot..most of the time. At any rate, for those who have done the drive, what has been your time? My older brother and I would be doing it non stop, except for fuel, bathroom stops. Destination is Anchorage. Oh..and one other item..This journey will take place late Feb. so would need to factor in winter weather driving. My older bro has said for a couple years now that when he turns 60 he wants to make the drive north to watch the start of the Iditarod sled dog race that starts early March. I offered???? to go with him when he would talk about it...well...I think I am on the hook with him now as he has booked a room up there for next early March in Anchorage...haha....I am sure the journey will be a blast. Booked a B&B in Nome for the finish of the race. Probably have to take a flight from Anchorage to Nome. Should be interesting as I have never taken more than a week off at a time from work. At any rate...looking for info from any of you who have made the trip and how many hours to drive. Thanks!:;:cheers [/QUOTE]
