End of the road appears to be just north of town: https://goo.gl/maps/shD9UoxTtK42 https://goo.gl/maps/shD9UoxTtK42
Western Canada is big. If you drive from Inuvik to San Diego over 60% of the entire road distance is within Canada.
- abruzzi 9y agoThey're actually building a road north out of Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk, which will take you to the Arctic Ocean: http://www.cbc.ca/news/multimedia/driving-to-the-top-of-the-world-exploring-canada-s-new-arctic-highway-1.4073615 http://www.cbc.ca/news/multimedia/driving-to-the-top-of-the-...
- emilyfm 9y agoI didn't realise that road was so nearly finished. Should be open by end of this year. That's 3750 km (2400 miles) by road from Vancouver BC to the Arctic Ocean. Longer than Melbourne to Perth across Australia.
- SwellJoe 9y agoThat's a beautiful drive. I passed through on my way to Alaska a few years ago. It had some of my favorite stops ever...sometimes just stopping and parking the RV at a pull off even led to gorgeous scenery. One of my favorite hot springs (Liard) is on that route. So many bears and moose and other critters, too.
