The road is narrow, has soft shoulders, high embankments and steep hills. There are lengthy stretches of gravel surface with sharp rocks, potholes, washboard, and, depending on the weather, clouds of dust or slick mud. Watch out for dangerous curves and loose gravel, especially between Livengood and Yukon River (MP 0-56). You may encounter snow and ice north of Coldfoot any month of the year. Expect for and prepare for all conditions
