Along the Denali Highway





The mighty Susitna River.


On day three we broke camp where we had been staying near the Brushkana campground and headed east towards Clearwater Creek. It was a lovely day for a drive, we only passed a handful of vehicles headed in the other direction. 

Mile 67 to mile 60 were incredibly rough road, filled with potholes and washboard, I think we only averaged 20 miles or less an hour. The mile markers on the Denali Highway are set up east to west, and since we drove west to east we travel backwards through the mile markers. 

This being a gravel road the slower we drove the less dust so the rough road didn't bother us much, plus we were on holiday and had no particular plans which are the best kind of road trips.
