Caravan Rant
Just need to vent a little. All these caravans marching around Alaska are starting to really agrivate me. They come into campgrounds and make it difficult for those of us with the gumption of going...

We are 80 days into our 6 month trip to Alaska. We never make reservations in advance because we never know where we will be on any given date. We left AZ on April 28 and due to unforeseen circumstances our first major stop was Valdez. We never encountered any caravans until yesterday when we started seeing them on the Alaska Hwy when we left Skagway. We have not been inconvenienced by caravans until this AM when 4 coaches traveling together as a caravan had the nerve to get to the CG before us. We had to wait 15 whole minutes for them to complete their sign ins at the park.:W We are currently at Bear River Rv Park in Stewart BC and will be heading south tomorrow. Like others on this thread we use CGs once a week for laundry, otherwise we use state or provincial parks or pullouts/rest areas. We have adequate solar and batteries to get us through the night unless its been overcast(like it has been this whole trip).
The only inconvenience I expect will be the rerouting due to the fires. We have met some very apprehensive slow drivers in rentals that should never have rented an RV, but what the heck, we all started some way or another. I just wish that the rental agencies would educated them about turn-outs or pull-outs.
