Agree with the post above. But would add that it depends on where you plan to be and when. Some coastal areas don't drop much below 40F (from what I've read) year round.

Carefully read the "Traveling in Canada and Alaska" forum on RV Net, especially Roll Call Alaska 2013 & 2014 if you haven't yet. A ton of helpful info., and you will note that this year RVers had to deal with fires, significant flooding, water rescues, and late season snow. All part of the adventure! Finally, keep in mind that some (many?) campgrounds in Alaska and Canada start to close by mid-September. Best wishes for safe travels.
