I am seriously thinking of making this trip leaving Florida late April or early May 2018. I am planning to retire end of 2017, and this trip is on my short bucket list. I have been reading and planning a lot, but do not have the final route planned. I want to travel to a least Yellowstone before heading up to Alaska. There will be two of us traveling via a travel trailer.
Glad you are thinking of making the trip to Alaska. About your timing for Yellowstone, if you arrive there in late April or early May, campgrounds or services may still be closed. Roads may still be closed or impassable. Spring/summer comes late there (usually). We have been there in June and experienced enough snowfall for the Rangers to confine us to our immediate area for the day. It can snow and dip below freeing any month there. So if stopping by Yellowstone, I would suggest calling ahead to see what is open and what is not. Good luck and hope you have a great trip.
