Kat, what highway is that ? Also, I'm curious to know if you're allowed to pull rockies along those roads. I got my Turnpike endorsement a few months back, and on some weekends, i moonlight by pulling a few turnpike loads for Bison ( Edm-Calgary and back, or Edm-Radisson switch ). They've recently got a chunk of the Walmart multi-temp account from you guys over at TransX, and I've been asked if I'm interested in going out for a few longer trips to northern BC.

That's on the Alaska Highway Graymist...no, we can only pull Rockies as far as Dawson Creek. The roads are way too narrow for anything longer than a Super B.
Didn't you know that Bison is now owned by TransX? I think TransX didn't even bid on the majority of the multi-temp loads...more hassle than their worth IMHO. The longer trips are nicer, the roads are pretty good to Ft. Nelson, but after that they're pretty narrow & winding...there's 200 or so klicks that are still on the old road...but it's not so bad once you get used to them...and in the Yukon it's same as from Dawson Creek to Ft. St. John...decent 2 lane highway.
