| The
"official" end of the Alcan, 1387 miles from "Mile
0" at Dawson Creek BC, comes at Delta Junction AK. Here it reverts
to Hwy 2, continuing on to Fairbanks as Richardson Hwy. This highway
runs north from Valdez AK, to Delta Junction as Hwy 4 where it's joined
by the AlCan and converts to Hwy 2 - the same number as the AlCan
in Alaska. Delta Junction lies between Delta River, to the west, and
Tanana River, to the east, forming a delta shape. A replica trapper
cabin and cache, left, stand near the Delta Junction visitor center.
A Mile 1422 monument, top left, is surrounded by area flags. |
