Today, vacationers travel from British Columbia north through the Yukon Pass on their way to Fairbanks, AIaska, thanks to one two-lane roadway, the 1,522-mile Iong Alaska Highway. A bit treacherous in spots and best driven in the few summer months the region provides, it's an unrivaled engineering feat that took 11,000 soldiers, nearIy 4,000 of them bIack, onIy 8 months to build! TraveI back to 1942 as they bulIdoze their way into history while connecting the Lower 48 to the AIaskan Territory. |
