No way. Blaine, WA to Campobello Is. is just over
4000 by Mapquest, taking into account all of the
stops. Adding a segment of Skagway to Blaine adds
1500 miles. So that makes 5500 miles. A Yukon
crossing near Beaver Creek could be done in 1700 miles
(distance to Blaine), which would make 5700. Even if
you were thinking of a round trip segment from Blaine
to Yukon to Blaine, you would still only get 7400
miles. Any of these figures are much closer to 6000
than 11,000. Were your calculations done while on the
aformentioned cocaine? heh heh heh ;)
