Alaska By Camper

 

 

 

 In July of 2007 Bill and I flew to Alaska, rented an RV, picked up my family and toured Alaska from an RV point of view for 10 days. We had my daughter-in-law, my 2 grandsons and 2 of their friends. With camping gear for the kids, fishing poles, tons of kid friendly food off we went. None of us have ever been to Alaska.

My favorite stop was Miller’s Landing. Miller’s landing is a family owned and operated camp site with a Bed n Breakfast, fishing, tent camping and plenty of space for RV’s, 5th Wheels and cabin rentals. The people there are so nice. Most of the helping hands are folks who came there from the lower 48 to stay the summers to earn some money for college and to experience the wilderness. It is very affordable and you can’t beat the view!

Miller’s Landing is right on Resurrection Bay at Seward AK which is just down the street from Lowell Point AK. From Miller’s Landing you can see Lowell Point, the cruise ships and night lights in the evening hours. The mountain range is awesome! You can fish, canoe, kayak, hike, camp, shop and visit the wild life sanctuaries in and around Seward and Lowell Point.

It is a most beautiful place. I cannot begin to describe all that I saw while at Miller’s Landing. The native people are kind and generous.

Leaving Seward off we went North to the Denali National Park. Denali Park’s headquarters is located along Alaska Route 3, the George Parks Highway, approximately 240 miles North of Anchorage. It is primitive camping for sure. To enter the National Park you go by bus or railroad. No autos of any kind are allowed. We toured the Denali by bus which took about 6 hours. Bring your own food and water, good walking shoes and sun screen! The bus will drop you off at any point and you can hike/camp thru the park stopping at any point along the main road to be picked up by a returning bus.

If I ever get a chance to go back to the Denali I will tour the park by train. Any place you visit North of Anchorage is tundra and primitive. South is more "beachy" in nature and good for folks who still want creature comforts. Fishing is abound any place you go. Just pull over, drop a line and enjoy!

It is very expensive. Save your pennies.
