The Road Chose Me Volume 2 OUT NOW!!
The Road Chose Me Volume 2: Three years and 54,000 miles around Africa
Always on the lookout for Sheep and Caribou, Etienne and I spend a week roaming the North Canol Road, up and over MacMillan Pass into the North West Territories. It’s late in the fall, and we encounter heavy snowfall on the pass. We’re the last vehicle for the season, and we enjoy every minute of exploration.

One of the most beautiful – and remote – places I’ve ever been in a vehicle.

Love the Canol road, a special place. Great time of year, great pictures.
Hi, I was thinking going up those mountains to Itsi Lake etc by the North Canol Rd. But I can’t seem to find when during june its good to go considering the snow melting away and the ice has broken up on the big lakes. I was thinking going at the end of june. Do you have any idea?
I can see early june might be way to early

Hi Tonje,
I’ve been in Southern Yukon on May 24 when lakes still had ice on them. I really don’t know when the North Canol would be snow free, though I’d leave it until mid-July myself.
