Yeah....guy from Texas makes such a great suggestion. It always takes me by surprise when some goof suggests breaking a law in Canada and no-one raises an eyebrow. Make a similar suggestion about breaking a US/state law and the world is about to end.

- Hindsight is always rose-colored: The Anchorage of the 60's (where I grew up) turned to Los Anchorage in the 70's (pipeline boom) and again later in the 90's (another indirect petroleum boom).....and never went back, all in my NSHO of course.

“Triple tow”? So if I uncouple the two towed vehicles/trailers and drive the tow vehicle alone am I “single towing”? RV terms confuse this bunkin...
If you are taking a ferry from WA to AK disregard this Canada info:
When checking for info don’t mix light duty / RV regs with commercial vehicle regulation.
SK province operates 3 x 53ft trailer road train combinations on certain roads and 2x53ft trailer trucks and double semi-trailers (140,000lbs Super B) are common in western Canada.
Light vehicles/RV are under different rules.
BC does not permit light vehicle double tow.
AB permits with front trailer coupled by a king pin fifth wheel only. No ball couplers.
SK permits ball or fifth wheel lead trailer. It must be 2 or more axles, with brakes on all axles. Lead trailer must weigh more than the back trailer.
Not sure about YT or MB - info is on DMV websites.
Length limits apply. 65ft is common.
Sounds like a fun adventure.
