We continue our journey to Alaska! In this episode, we travel from Spearfish, South Dakota, USA to Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada with stops in Billings and Shelby, Montana. We share some of our preparations for driving into Canada and Alaska and our first Canadian border crossing.
From the time we left our RV lot in South Florida, to the time we pulled up to the Canadian border in Sweetgrass, Montana, we traveled 3,003 miles in 21 days (yes, exactly 3 weeks). 1,000 miles per week is a lot more than we normally drive, but as you'll see in our coming videos, it will be so worth it!!
Visiting Canada and Alaska has been on our bucket list for years, and we are so excited that it is finally becoming a reality for us.
This is our first ever border crossing into Canada, and we really had no idea what to expect. We did our best to prepare for it. How did it all work out? We share all the details in the video below.
