Most of the roads aren't paved up here per se. In Whitehorse, obviously they are 'full asphalt' roads......maybe 25 km out of town in all directions they change to chip seal (BST). Thankful they do too. The roads are quite fluid, especially with frost heave and seasonal change so the BST is more elastic.....imagine a twizzler that gets pushed at both ends, stays intact....now try to flex a cookie....and thats what would happen to an fully paved highway up here.
