Top of the World Highway, Ma!

Next up is the Top of the World Highway. No trip to Alaska is complete unless you do this road. It was by far the highlight of the whole trip, from the beginning, to the customs in the middle of nowhere, to Chicken, AK and on to Tok.



It's just hard to imagine that, as you gain altitude, you look around and see mountains 360 degrees, and you ride and you still see the mountains, and you continue to ride, hour after hour and the stunning scenary just never quits, nor does it get monotonous. Never ending and always changing. Awesome, stupendous, sensory overload. There just aren't enough adjectives to describe it.



So, to reflect to peace, solitude, spirituality, etc, I'm going to flood you with the pictures with minimal, if any, commentary.
