Not exactly where you are, but when my wife and I took our '91 Westy from
Virginia through BC, Yukon, and all over Alaska, one morning while checking
the van, I thought I had a tiny, tiny, coolant leak and couldn't find it.
Just being paranoid before really getting off the beaten path, I stopped in
Whitehorse since I heard there was a good place there.  One mechanic looked
at it and could find nothing and he said "wait till the owner gets here
since he really knows Vanagons".  We did and he carefully looked over
everything and he said "nothing to worry about and have a great trip." No
charge!  I tried to pay him and he said "stop and get an oil change on your
way back" if you need one.   I quit worrying and we drove all over Alaska
for weeks and weeks and returned home to Virginia with no problems.

If you make it that far for repairs, call ahead of time and make certain
the address is correct from
