I am planning a trip to Alaska but don't know all the places I want to visit, how to get there, where to stay, what to do, or when to go. I have to many questions to ask and think I might learn a lot by reading travel reports or blogs by others who have made the journey. I have seen one or two but don't know how to find more. If you have a trip report or blog you have done from a past trip and wouldn't mind, please add a link to this post so I can read it.

Thanks,

Matt

Have RV'ed through 49 states and been in all 50, just short of my half-century.

Get the video/dvd `Alaska by RV' by the Howens; there may be others as well. Seeing it will make you want to go even more.

Here is the blog for our trip in 2008. It lacks information on Fairbanks as we spent 5 days there in 2005, so we did not spend much time there in 2008.

Our trip was three months including traveling the Inside Passage by ferry.
