So beautiful!!! It’s on my bucket list.

As someone who drove up here from just down the road from you (just east of Shreveport), you can make it to Colorado the first night, Seattle the second night, Smithers BC by the third night and be in Fairbanks by the 4th night. Another 3-4 days (depending on how much you want to drive) from Fairbanks to Deadhorse. And if you are doing it in June-July, the sun is not going to set up there. Plenty of things to see.

Its highly doable. If you'd like help on the logistics and planning angle, just PM me. We can get you from Tyler, TX to the Brooks Range General Store in Deadhorse, with a million pictures and memories for a lifetime.

Actually meant to ask OP, how was the Beaver Slide when you traversed it? Good and dry or holding on and praying whilst you skid?

Not a problem, conditions were hot and dry.
