    The trick is not to find loads going there but finding ones that pay enough to cover expences and a little profit. You are getting into specialized equipment ie: 244" or less WB and no spread axle. Be aware of frost laws. Things are slow in AK right now. When I was up last month I saw no Payne trucks, no Byers trucks, no Carlile trucks, a few rate cutting Fairchilds and two Lynden FBs. Mainly the only thing that comes out is empty trucks. Be aware and adjust your rates accordingly.
