Frank....stay tuned for some upcoming posts to the blog on some stuff I did off of the Cassiar. The Cassiar is good but some of the side roads (dirt) are even better.

Waiting,waiting.
Thanks.

I'm waiting also. I really want to travel before it's all paved. May not make it.

After doing the Top of the World Highway and crossing into Alaska, I was headed towards the town of Tok and then west towards Glennallen. In between lies Wrangell-St. Elias National Park.........................

After leaving Wrangell-St Elias I continued west skirting the Cooper River Basin towards GlenAllen. From there it was north towards Paxson where I would get on on the Denali Highway headed to the Denali National Park. May plan was to lay up for 5-7 days once in the park. Would have to pay for camping there but wouldn't be spending much on gas. Having been to Denali twice before, I was looking forward to it again as the photo opportunities are excellent........

Life is always good, no matter what you're doing. Thanks for the comments on the pictures as I enjoy taking them and am thankful there are those that appreciate some of them.

After spending 6 nights in Denali National Park I decided it was time to move on. I had really needed to just lay up for a while and give myself a rest. I had now covered well over 5000 miles, and had been on the road for about a month and other than a couple of nights had been on the move every day........see more

You are doing it right, Mr. Park, with your wandering style of travel. What a great trip! You got our attention and Kenai Fjords National Park is added to our list. Add the northern lights to your photos and we'd leave now and never come back.

Great photos as usual. I would enjoy a trip like this.

Finally made it out to Homer, Alaska. It's only 200 miles from Anchorage but it's taken me a week to cover that. Trust me when I say there is a lot to see and do in that 200 miles. That, along with the fact that I've got to be the slowest traveler in the world.....

Got back from Katmai National Park late that afternoon after a bumpy flight back to Homer. Seeing as it wasn't getting dark until around 9 pm I decided to load up and start heading north back towards Anchorage. Figured I'd just pull over after knocking off some miles. Next destination was McCarthy...........

While in Valdez I could sense a change in the air. The nights were getting cold, the sun was disappearing much sooner in the afternoons and one could feel that winter up here was still a ways off but coming on. I was firing up the propane heater in the camper just about nightly now and dreading the slow crawl out of the warm sleeping bag each morning. Lying in the camper one night as I listened to the drumming of heavy rain outside I began to waiver on my planned route.........
