Window Shades
I passed through Wasilla, Ak in July of 2008. It is beautiful country there. I took my RV up through British Columbia through the Yukon Territory and on to Fairbanks where I was delayed for 9 days getting radiator damage repaired. If you plan to visit Hershey Park and travel in your RV. A word of warning if you drive down through British Columbia beware of the frost dips and loose gravel. I had lots of damage from the frost dips to both my RV and the Jeep that I was towing and I met
other people who were coming down as I was going up and they had damage. So get a good rock deflecting system between your Toad and your RV and don't drive over 40 mph and watch for those frost dips.

I took
the ferry from Haines, Ak to Skagway, Ak and then drove up through the Tok, Ak cutoff and it was where my Hydraulic cooler heat exchanger was damaged by forces on the hydraulic hoses when bouncing in those frost dips and also that road was under construction in many places along the way. BC was a welcome sight if you can believe that. So be sure to talk to people on this forum about road conditions and how to protect your RV before you venture out through Canada. Its a beautiful province and well worth the time but be prepared.

Hi Linda & Micheal I don't know any of the people you mentioned. Did you live in this area or just your family? If you go to Hershey in Oct. are you stopping in this part of the state? Is that the rally that Shane has the first of Oct. Wasilla must be a nice place to live. I've never been to AK before I know it is a long trip from here. I know some of the people on this forum were planing no going up there this next summer. I don't know if that is still on yet or not.

Don,

We just purchased our Bird in January, so haven't had a chance to travel much yet. Don't need shades. Just wonder if you knew my grandma Blanche Porterfield, Chiropractor, or my Aunt Lucille Walker secretary at Knock, or cousin Dick Walker, school counceler? We are hoping to go to Hershey next October.
