Phatboy, Where did you live in Alaska. I lived in Junea during the 80's and really enjoyed it. Came back in 89 because rainfall hit 130 inches. Just a little too much for me and the family. Came back to Central Oregon where we get 11 inches a year.

Dep.
I am also thinking of heading for SE Alaska in June and July. Looking at about 5000 mile round trip. Still have some convincing to do with the wife and kids. I am thinking about taking the Chev crew cab with trailer. That way they can take turns riding with me and if it starts snowing or something I can trailer it. Still working out the bugs. I travelled up the Alcan Highway two years ago and it was the best vacation I have taken so far. The roads were awesome and the weather was in the 80's most of the time.

Have a good one.
DJ
