Reminds me of the roads in New Zealand, they have "sealed" and "unsealed" sealed means they just spray tar over the compressed gravel, Rick

We arrived back in Anchorage, which is one of only two cities in Alaska the other being Fairbanks in such a fast area, anyhow we drove down to Whittier, and had to drive through a tunnel under the mountain,no problem i hear you say! but, and there's always a but, the tunnel is used by a train as well, no problem i hear you say! but the road straddles the railway track, you have 30 mins to drive a mile in this narrow tunnel with high kerbs and one eye looking where you are going in the dark and the other eye on the wing mirror in case a f
efffin train is up your backside, no kiddin it was scarey. got on one of the touristy boats to go and have a look at the Glaciers about 60 but i'm not sure,amazing sight and the noise is deafening when a chunk falls into the water,it rained most of the time we were there.
