The folks I feel sorry for
Are the ones who take a cruise to alaska, then the train to the cruise lines' hotel and then fly back home and tell everybody they've seen Alaska! We just spent the whole summer cruising around Alask...

I would love to roam around Alaska with my camper but just getting to Anchorage is a 20 day round trip of 8500 miles and would cost over $1000 in gas, not to mention meals, etc. That doesn't allow time to see anything on the way up and back. A cruise with a few interior tours would be a great deal for me and that's what I'm looking for next. I can get the camping experience much closer to home and I can look at similar scenery in the Rockies but I would like to see a few of the things unique to Alaska. It's great if you have the time and location so that Alaska is doable more completely but that option is just not available to most of us.
