Paul,
I'm heading north from Salt Lake next June (late) for 3 months. Ferry
northbound and highway/roads coming back. Anchorage/Denali furthest
northward points.

Question: do you think that amount of time allows for enough "sightseeing"
and is it in the time frame recommended for travel in AK?

(nice photo log of your AC trip in '02!!)

Thanks for any .....
