Say y'all...let's start getting some thoughts down on some paremeters for a gathering. I'll start putting together a .pdf of driving times, ferry costs if I can get some input...here's some initial thoughts I had (keeping in mind I've never participated in something like this)...
1. Alaska is a big, big state and is pretty far away. It would be good to be able to accomodate folks on different schedules, time frames, and routes and meet at a location and travel a few days as a big caravan.
2. It would be good to have separate smaller caravans coming up from say...Glacier/Waterton via Calgary, Banff, and Jasper....up the Marine Highway from Bellingham, WA...and say from Seattle up through Kamloops
3. An ending point in Alaska (or in the Yukon) would be good so that travellers with time could go on and caravan on for Anchorage, Seward, Homer, the Dalton Highway, etc. and points beyond.
4. Comments on must see, or must do, would help...for instance...from Whitehorse, you can easily schedule some great canoe trips down the Yukon and meet up with fellow campers at a predetermined sites.
Thoughts????
Best Wishes and this would be a great time!!!...Juneaudave
