Not so much, it is just incredibly remote people have done it in Volkswagen beetles. It can eat tires and windshields though.

The Mackenzie trail now that is brutal, although not technically a road.

I had planned doing that trip the year covid hit, started solo ended up with 8 more trucks wanting to go. Canceled due to border closures and travel restrictions.
Works out to just shy of 5000 miles round trip from Vancouver and I had 25 days scheduled, averaging about 7 hours on the road tops a few longer ones up north. A few longer stops for vehicle maint and check over.

Yeah, there's a good video of a group of guys doing the Mackenzie in Toyotas.
