We met Paul Gilland in Inuvik. He made the trip separately, on an old Honda motorcycle. His page has tons of photos, and is very much worth a look-see.

Yup, an internet service provider in the Yukon. When you think about it, they probably need the Internet up here more than I need it in the Silicon Valley!
The World Guide to Vegetarianism page on Whitehorse. Isn't the Web wonderful???
Shows a Vanagon Westfalia with a stone guard. It would be a good idea to consider creating one of these for your bus! (This image is courtesy of Harry Yates.)
Very detailed descriptions of highways and towns in Alaska, Yukon Territories, and Northern British Columbia. Worth checking out, definitely.
The AlCan rally is a modern event based on the original concept of rallying as a grand tour, motoring adventure, and a gentleman's sport. A competitive event that requires experience, good judgement & equipment, consistency, reliability and rescourcefulness, something bus drivers are known for. Traverses North America's most remote roads and climate extremes (-58 F in the 1990 event), from Seattle to Prudhoe Bay, in winter! Perhaps next year with a few Syncros?
