I am planning the long drive to Akaska from Florida this spring 2012. Not sure where I’m going to live when I get there. Perhaps I’ll park at Walmart for a few nights until I can find a job and a place to live. Walmart actually allows this.
I’ve also been looking for a campground that allows long term stay. I can’t find any.

Regarding the ratio of males to females in Alaska, I’ve heard a saying from a couple people who have lived there. “The odds are good, but the goods are odd.”

We were on a cruise so stopped at Sitka, Juneau, Skagway and Ketchikan. We also cruised Glacier Bay. Next time I want to go to Denali.

Bucksome- When did you go? I have always wanted to go to Montana because of the wide open spaces.

I don’t think I could deal with the long winters and darkness either!

Thanks! I’ve wanted to do a series on something, and this just popped in my head one day. It’s been fun!

Alaska is incredibly beautiful and when I visited I was amazed at the amount of undeveloped land.

However, I could never live there with the long winters and darkness.

P.S. Great series, I’m looking forward to the rest of the states.

Akborn- I think it would be really weird to have the daylight different like it is up there. It would throw me off!

Now that is awesome! $400 seems like a great deal for rent!
