HERE is a clickable link.
We have been sidelined at Missoula for the past three days due to an electrical problem that I just fixed today (with great help from other rv.net members on the Tech forum) and will be heading north tomorrow to Kalispell and then on to St. Mary. Will probably take the senic route to Waterton and then on over/up to Calgary.
We're coming!!!

Glad to hear everyone is making safe progress to get here. We were out and about with my sister and brother-in-law this past week. We took a 9 hour tour boat out of Seward and saw tons of wildlife, such as orcas, humpbacks, black bear, sea lions, harbor seals, and otters. We also went to Northwest glacier and it was so cool watching it calve huge chunks into the water. I highly suggest the cruise with Kenai Fjords Tours and Captain Mark.

Going to be heading to Wasilla on the 4th of June for a few days if anyone will be in the area. I'll post my site # when we arrive but we'll be in Big Bear RV park. So if you're in the neighborhood drop on by!
Veebyes,
I think we will miss you folks unfortunately...you'll probably be gone when we arrive.

We are on our second day to get to Alaska. Made it to Madras, Oregon. We do have a problem and if some of you can help us with it we would be grateful. How are the fueling stations along the way? We seem to have a problem with size. Our rig is new and is a 42' so we have a bit of a problem with smaller stations that only serve the cars. Will this be a problem on the highways in BC and Alaska? My hubby is quite worried about this.
Happy trails to all and good travelin'

If you fuel at truck stops or the larger stations, most of the larger stations have diesel, so that makes your accessibility a lot easier. Also, go into the stations that are on the outside of town or along the freeway, also, Costco, Walmart, Sam's Club. Most of the new stations are also larger, than the corner gas pumps.

Finally made it to Anchorage. 5,200+ miles so far from Maryland. On the way up try to stop at Muncho Lake and Liard hot springs. the lake has dry camping right at the water's edge. Soaking in the hot springs felt great after days of many miles.
Next stop is Scenic RV park in Ninilchik. Pop in and say Hi if you're in the area. Reds will be running shortly!!!
Beware of road around Kluane lake after coming out of Watson lake. Road is all tore up and crews are working on them.

Well we are off again! This time to Wasilla and Big Bear RV Park. While we are there we plan on checking out a few other parks in the area (for future reference). We'll be there for 3 or 4 days and we'd love to meet any RV.net folk in the area. We are in site #19 Just look for a black Ford F350 Duallie with Tow Twuck on the front license and an RV.Net sticker in the rear window!
