Heating and Planning

What started as a failed glycol pump in British Columbia turned into an 18-day battle without heat while traveling through the Yukon and Alaska. After unsuccessful attempts to find a technician in Haines and Juneau, I tackled the repair myself and restored heat to the van. The experience also exposed flaws in my carefully planned Alaska itinerary, leading me to abandon a rigid route in favor of a more flexible hub-and-spoke approach for the remainder of the trip.
