jandjhawk: No, you're not too late to take off for Alaska. Hopefully, you still have time to pick up the Milepost and also Mike and Terri Church's Alaskan Camping book. (Don't rely on the Milepost for camping information. Those are all paying advertisers.) The Church's lived in Alaska and return often to update their book. It's highly recommended. Also, order online the Tour Saver 2/1 coupon book. One or two activities (glacier tour, etc.) will pay for the book. It's a big savings. The 2 books might be found in a bookstore like Barnes & Nobles or all 3 are available online if you have the time.
Also, mosey on over the the 'RVing in Canada and Alaska' forum on this site. There lots of good information. Also, on the first line of that forum site is a 'Sticky' of this year's forum members making the trip right now. They're chatting back and forth on their trip in progress with good hints on campgrounds, etc.
Hope you have your passports. We crossed at Sumas, Washington which is a smaller entry and less congestion. Have a great trip and get movin'!!
