We'e been to Alaska twice in the last three years in our RV and it is fantastic. We found the roads in NW Canada and Alaska as good or better then many places in the US. That being said, they only have 4 months to fix and construct their roads, so you are always going to find some under construction. We had chips in out windshield both times (easily fixed) and stones against the front, so a bra and windshield protection (??) are not bad ideas. We went up the Alcan hwy and then down to Skagway, took the ferry to Haines and back up to Canada and into Alaska. Skagway and Haines are worthwhile side trips. We select a week inside Denali NP but you have to make reservations early. Those were the only reservations we made, but 4th of July weekend is big in Alaska, so you need to be somewhere early and stay. We spent one in Homer and the other in Stewart. Stewart was the best, but you need to be there a week early (at least) or have a reservation. Many beautiful places to stay on the Kenai peninsula. Coming home we went up to Chicken Alaska (a hoot) and across the "Top of the World Highway" to Dawson City, Canada where there is a good musical festival in late July or August. Then we went south on Rt 37 to Rt 16 and east to get home. Off of Rt 37 (newly paved last year) a side trip to Hyder, Alaska and their fishing bears, is a must. Great trip. Do it! Buy You won't be disappointed.
