Doing the "bucket-list" drive in our motorhome (no toad) this summer (June & July) from Dawson Creek to Fairbanks -- then on to Denali. Is there any published list of caches along the highway. I can no longer "slew" along the highway on the geocaching map to find them and write my notes. Is there a way to do this, anymore? Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions!

Since you're a Premium Member, you can create or use "routes," which you can convert into Pocket Queries and download to your GPSr. Go to this Groundspeak web page.

To find an existing route, use the "Search for Existing Routes" tab, enter "alaska highway" in the search box, and click the "Find Public Routes" button.

To create your own route, use the "Create New Route" tab and have at it.

There's a Groundspeak video that explains all this.

P.S.: Enjoy the trip. Unfortunately, we hadn't started geocaching when we did it.
