Crossing the Mackenzie, then and now. 🌉🐃

When I was growing up in Yellowknife, the only way south was by ferry in summer, an ice road in winter, and even a helicopter during the freeze-up and thaw. Today, the Deh Cho Bridge—spanning 1.1 km across the mighty Mackenzie River—connects the Northwest Territories year-round. Opened in 2012, it’s the largest bridge north of the 60th parallel in Canada and a game-changer for life in the north.

One of my favourite shots? A bison grazing peacefully with the bridge in the background—a perfect symbol of how modern infrastructure and timeless northern landscapes collide.

Charging challenges on the road south. ⚡🛑

On my way through Fort Providence, I stopped at the new chargers—only to find they weren’t online yet. That made the stretch between Yellowknife and Lady Evelyn Falls a real test of planning (and patience).

Happy to report those chargers are now up and running, making this once-tricky leg of the drive a whole lot easier for future EV adventurers.

The long road south. 🚗⚡ From the capital of the Northwest Territories through endless stretches of highway, forests, and prairies, this drive was more than just miles covered—it was a journey packed with challenges, beauty, and plenty of road trip reflections.

🌎 2 states. 2 provinces. 2 territories.
It’s been a dusty, unforgettable couple of months on the road. 🚗✨

From a return to my hometown of Yellowknife—filled with music, wildfires, and friends—to one of the most scenic ferry rides I’ve ever taken, and finally to the very end of the road at the Arctic Ocean on one of the toughest drives I’ve ever done… it’s been nothing short of incredible.

I’m finally home, sorting through photos, reflecting on it all, and working on stories I can’t wait to share here and on myevtrips.com. Stay tuned.
