Are we there yet mom?

Congrats! Did you get any flat tires and have to use a plug or your spare wheel assembly?
No, but we saw multiple vehicles with flat tires between Eagle Plain and the Arctic Ocean. Definitely not a place for stock P or LT tires; AT or RT tires highly recommend.

All sites are on plug share now! Easy trip thanks to their hard work!
What did you find was the tightest leg, range/charge wise? I'd like to do this next year, if all goes to plan, perhaps joining forces with a local CT buddy to avoid a solo journey... no way my wife is roughing it for more than one night! :LOL:

Dawson City to Eagle Plaines was the only tough stretch at 420kms. We charged to 100% at the FLO station and found a safe parking spot at the hotel where we could leave sentry off. Plugged in 120v in the morning to defrost and load up and left at 100%. Drove ~50 km/h for 8.5 hrs and made it with 6% buffer. We probably have 2k lbs of gear, roofbox, and oversize tires. Cyberbeast showing 484kms at 100%.

That doesn't leave much leeway for adverse weather conditions... 🤔

No, but we brought a 10kW Honda generator as backup since we are traveling alone and have the kids with us so we weren't too worried. Plus I was able to fix the destination charger in Eagle Plains (Blue light, wouldn't charge: caused by an over tightened faceplate. Thanks to TMC forum!!).

Kind of a pain to carry, but totally understand why you took it. I've been wondering whether it would be a good idea or not.

I was looking at the Polar Tire charger in Inuvik on Plugshare...it shows a $500 cost. Is that legit? 😲 I see $100 at other sites, which might look pricey but is not completely ridiculous given the cost of electricity in the far north.

im also impressed at how barebones your set up is as compared to the corporate sponsored YT’ers! pretty cool.
I'll take some pics when we unpack, we had a lot of gear!
