I'd suggest you go over to the Alaska/Canada forum. There are always posts of this kind over there.
Ourselves...we did it on our own with no problems. There are plenty of RVers on the roads and you'll meet up with them time after time. Everyone goes to the same places. You can't get lost.
What if you really like a place and want to stay longer...or really dislike a place and want to get out of there? With a caravan you have to go where you're told on their schedule. If you have any bad weather the caravans continue on. If you're on your own you can just relax until the weather clears so you can see that awesome scenery.
If you're concerned about the roads they are no worse than the lower 48. Yes, you'll have some areas of construction but you just go slow. You have the same in the lower 48.
