Excellent!

I highly suggest you bring a spare tire, get gas and fill up at every station you see, and pack a full compliment of winter gear with some granola bars, etc in the back of your car incase you get stranded.
Also, chains, a tow strap, jumper cables and an emergency kit

Been there done that!

Clearly not the same, but the Summer pics almost look like simply driving Stevens Pass in the Summer. Anyway, I know you've done the Alcan dozen or so times, but HOW do you get such great shots while driving?
