The Milepost is an annually updated, A4 format, unique touring-travel guide to Alaska and Northwest Canada (British Columbia, the Yukon, and Alberta) featuring detailed mile-by-mile highway logs, thirty major routes, 60 side trips and over 100 maps. Details of en-route accommodation, camping and fishing, wildlife viewing, road conditions and sightseeing options are included, as is information on ferry travel and a pull-out map to help you plan your trip.

The introduction covers topics such as routes and passage times, weather, cyclones, currents, entry procedures and regulations for the different areas. Included details allow the traveller to locate the next gas station, campground, hotel or scenic spot in areas where signs and billboards may be scarce. The text is seeded with advertisements for many of the commercial establishments along the Alaska Highway in Canada and the limited major road network in Alaska, allowing travellers to plan ahead for scarce beds and RV hook-ups.
