Slideshow: bike tour of Alaska

I recently returned from a north to south tour of Alaska on a route we titled "Black Artery of Alaska" because our line followed the Trans-Alaska Pipeline.
Here is a slideshow on groundtruthtrekking.org: https://www.groundtruthtrekking.org/s...y-of-alaska-2/

Some pretty incredible scenery and wildlife! How big was the actual pipe? I've always pictured it in my mind as massive, but it seems comparatively small in a couple of your photos.

WOW! thanks for sharing the pics. Looks like a fantastic trip but I imagine there were very few services along that route.
