Your vision sounds great; I just caution you on the execution. Getting far away from your current situation is important in everyone's life journey. Doing this right will make you stronger for the rest of your life; doing it wrong will make for an ugly or even fatal experience.
Wherever you go, I encourage you to travel by land. People who get dropped off in the middle of nowhere can get in trouble fast. If you travel by land, you will see the transition from the concrete jungle to the far north unfold in front of your eyes. You can then decide how far you want/need to go, and how quickly. You could walk, hitchhike, bicycle, drive, take a bus, whatever.
I grew up in New Hampshire, but I find references to the Yukon in my early elementary school writing. The far north is just in some people's blood. I spent 18 months living on a bicycle in my twenties, and I wouldn't trade that time for anything. I live in Alaska now, and loved the journey here.
Good luck!

I'm extremely interested in hearing your experiences. Do you have a blog or any posts outlining your experiences in-depth?
