The unpaved road is used by local residents to access Craig Lake,[24][25] and is signed as Craig Lake Trail. Other former segments have deteriorated and are no longer usable. More recent construction projects have deliberately plowed up roadway to close it. {{clear}}See also{{portal|Canada Roads|U.S. Roads|Alaska|British Columbia|Yukon}}- Inter-American Highway

It begins at the junction with several Canadian highways in Dawson Creek, British Columbia, and runs to Delta Junction, Alaska, via Whitehorse, Yukon. Completed in 1942 at a length of approximately {{convert|2700|km|mi|order=flip}}, {{As of|2012|lc=y}} it is {{convert|2232|km|mi|abbr=on|order=flip}} long. The difference in distance is due to constant reconstruction of the highway, which has rerouted and straightened out numerous sections. The highway was opened to the public in 1948.[ Legendary over many decades for being a rough, challenging drive, the highway is now paved over its entire length.][ Its component highways are British Columbia Highway 97, Yukon Highway 1 and Alaska Route 2.An informal system of historic mileposts developed over the years to denote major stopping points; Delta Junction, at the end of the highway, makes reference to its location at "Historic Milepost 1422."][ It is at this point that the Alaska Highway meets the Richardson Highway, which continues {{convert|155|km|mi|abbr=on|order=flip}} to the city of Fairbanks. This is often regarded, though unofficially, as the northern portion of the Alaska Highway, with Fairbanks at Historic Milepost 1520.][ Mileposts on this stretch of highway are measured from Valdez, rather than the Alaska Highway. The Alaska Highway is popularly (but unofficially) considered part of the Pan-American Highway, which extends south (despite its discontinuity in Panama) to Argentina.][==History=====Proposal===[[File:Proposed Alaska Hwy routes 1938.png|Overview map for routes A and B, 1938][{{cite news |title=How Road Will Benefit Prince George |url=http://pgnewspapers.pgpl.ca/fedora/repository/pgc:1938-02-24/-/Prince%20George%20Citizen%20-%20February%2024,%201938 |accessdate=September 17, 2018 |work=Prince George Citizen |date=February 24, 1938 |page=5 |language=en}}]
