Alaska Caravan - Summer 2017??

Anyone interested in caravanning together on a 60 day or so round-trip to Alaska this coming summer?

I'll ether pull my 5th wheel or load my 2004 Lance 815 up and take that. My wife and I are both early 60's, pretty physically fit and like to see and do things along the way. We're flexible as to when we depart and return, but cannot leave earlier than mid-to-late May.

I'm thinking, maybe 3-4 rigs traveling together or at least meeting up every night (or two)could be a good thing for the right couples.

Any interest out there?

what start date did you have in mind?
we and two other couples are going, and have not made any hard arrangements yet.


My wife and I will be in Massachusetts until about mid-May or so. Currently, we're in Florida and plan to go up to Mass about April 1 or when the weather has cleared up some from the winter.

We'll probably shoot down to NM first and then leave from there. I'm thinking that the second week in June or so would be a good time to cross into Canada as a start date, but am flexible.

Thoughts?

We are planning on entering Canada at Sweetgrass Montana on or about June 1st. We have reservations at Grizzly Bear Resort over July 4th. We only drive 4 hours a day and sometimes stay somewhere we like for 2-4 days. That is the extent of our plan. We are not opposed to traveling with others but we understand that our travel patterns are a little different than most. We will return when we get around to it, probably September.

We'll be heading north around June 1st for what will most likely be at least a 3 month trip. This will be our second trip. Don't mind meeting up every couple of days. However, traveling full time together is a mistake, found that out the hard way! Way too much to do and see for a 60 day trip. That's why we are planning for at least 3 months.
