Anyone traveling to Alaska in 2014? We ,my wife and I, are planning a trip and was wondering if anyone is planning on going in 2014 also. Would go this year, except we have two weddings to go to in...

Laying out our route and plans as I type!! We are leaving Eastern NC late April, and kind of wandering through the northern plains and crossing over in Montana heading to Fairbanks with a couple of months to tour and soak up some of the "Last Frontier". Been following this thread for a while, great info! Has anyone thought of, experienced, or poo-pooed the idea of leap frogging down the coast via ferry with stops in some of the coastal towns w/ a XX ft. 5er??
Thought about it and then figured out the cost of boarding and unboarding at different spots. Cost is measured by the foot front to back including the tow bar/dolly if you are towing. Not thinking of it anymore as it would cost about half as much as our camping/driving for the entire trip. Maybe on another trip in a few dozen years.
There are many options for using the AMHS ferry besides the long Bellingham or Prince Rupert to Haines or Skagway route. Take a look at my 3/13 post for shorter routes and for routes that you can leave the RV behind for a few days and use the ferry like an Inside Passage cruise ship.
