Go by yourself. We first went up in 2006. Trip of a lifetime. Yeah, sure. Went back in 2007, 2009, 2011, 2013, 2015 and are planning for 2017. We spend the whole summer, from May thru September. It's only a long trip, and help is available anywhere along the way. We wander and only use CG reservations if there is a particular event we need to attend like July 4 anywhere, Denali, Women's Salmon Derby in Valdez, etc. If you are concerned, call a day or 2 ahead and space WILL be available. Take your time, move when you want and stay as long as you want to. LOTS of things to do and places to see. Get a Milepost, and do your planning as to what you want to see, and then modify as you need. Enjoy, and if you fish, you'll think you're in Heaven.
