Alaska Adventures
Last summer, we went on an awesome RV trip through Alaska. This summer, we are building on our amazing experience and traveling through the National Parks of the western US, so before I start sharing those adventures I wanted to share some of the highlights of our Alaska trip. We went the middle two weeks of August and the weather was rainy and cloudy a lot of days, temps in the 40s (mornings) to 60s (afternoon). There were still some very sunlit evenings—until almost 11 pm! I didn’t feel like the tourists were too bad at the places we went. Denali was crowded and we couldn’t get an RV spot right there in the park (we didn’t try to do it ahead of time), but there were plenty of places with availability outside the park. People said August/early Sept is the end of the tourist season so I think we just hit it on the downswing, which was perfect because things were still open, but not overly crowded. We flew from Phoenix into Anchorage and stayed overnight in a hotel before me...
