Alaska trip in June
Off to Alaska! My wife and I are planning to leave from Ankeny, Iowa on or about June 14th heading for Alaska. Thought I would see who has made the trip or lives along the general route and has suggestions for must see/do destinations. We have no definite schedule to keep and plan on at least 3 weeks and maybe more. If anyone along the way is getting close to first flight of a taildragger and wants some instruction in an RV-6 let me know
Some likely stops will be Regina to clear customs and stay the night, Edmonton, Fort St. John, Whitehorse, Palmer, Talkeetna.
Does anyone know if there is a pre-packaged chart kit for the Alcan section on up to Anchorage?
What other must have items would you take along?

I hope when we get back I can post a travel write-up with some pictures.
