Roll Call Alaska 2016
I have been planning this trip for 4+ years. It is now time to update my estimates and make my reservations. Estimate Wash/BC border about 5 May 2016, north on route 97/1/2 to Tok, south to Valdez...

We just finished up four days at Denali. Wow. Just wow. Saw lots of bears and caribou, but no moose or Dall sheep. Also was not able to see much of the mountain due to cloud cover. Luckily we were able to see it when we drove up from Trapper Creek. I would love to go back for a longer stay but we are in Fairbanks now. If I do go back, I definitely want to stay IN the park. I would love to camp at Teklanika but would settle for Riley Creek. Staying at Riverview RV Park in Fairbanks at the moment. Great wi-fi connection and the park looks decent. Sorry you are unhappy with the place in Homer, GGeorge. We stayed at Heritage RV park out on the spit and enjoyed it, even though it was pricey.
Has anyone driven over the Top of the World highway in the last couple of weeks? Looking for road condition updates. Is it feasible to drive from Tok to Dawson in one day without beating up the 5'er? Any recommendations for stopping places? Thanks!
