Hello! Lifelong Alaskan here, and hubby and I enjoy exploring our state in the RV with the dogs. Just to update, Centennial Campground isn't one you should recommend. I'm glad you haven't had any negative encounters there, but their reputation has been sketchy and currently it's closed to the public because Anchorage's homeless population is being housed there until a better solution can be found. There have been numerous issues with black bear getting into food, and many have had to be killed for the safety of the homeless staying there. Anyway, avoid recommending it in the future, and definitely find another camping spot when traveling through Anchorage! I enjoy your videos. It's fun to see Alaska through the eyes of tourists. We love our state!

[@Lakehouse5]

Very good series! I watched alot of travel to Alaska and I really enjoyed your series. Love the activities and dry camping areas.

[@acater006]

This was just superb. Thank you both for sharing a wealth of knowledge for to those of us looking to make the trip north.

This video was very well done by both of you. I couldn't take notes fast enough. Thank you for sharing your wonderful trips to Alaska.

Randy, love hearing that! Happy to answer questions, too. We also just released our 60-page Alaska Planning Guide which includes an interactive map of 150+ places (paid and free camping, dining, activities, even remote fuel stops!) on our website: www.newstatenomads.com/rvalaska

Hi you two! We’ve watched all your Alaska destinations so far this year and your recap was on point! Great job! Just the right balance of infos and humor. 😎🎬🎥👍👌

[@pri_rv]

You guys do the best travels videos! I’ve learned so much for our upcoming trip to Alaska - thank you!!

[@fleabrad]

Another great video! I'm looking forward to visiting Alaska!

[@marksharp2165]

Great information - thank you both!

[@NewstateNomads]

So glad it was helpful! You're welcome, Mark!

[@michaelspencer4152]

We are currently planning our 4th trip and I am kinda sad that we may skip Valdez this year and stay on the Peninsula.

[@kets4443]

I'm not going on the alcan through tok though coming from Europe. What if I fly into juneau or anchorage via seattle?

[@troypatterson5862]

Looking forward to the planner. I'm not going there for close to two years from now but I'm already planning. Safe travels. Your fellow HighLander.

[@kimproffer695]

Your Alaska trip was my favorite to watch! When I was growing up my father used to take us camping every summer and one summer we drove from Florida to Alaska and it was by far my most favorite state! So breathtakingly beautiful!! ❤️

[@tarac5137]

Great information! Thanks for laying it our for us.

[@paulab984]

What time if year were you there? That is so helpful to know. Great video!

[@NewstateNomads]

Thanks, Paula! We've visited Alaska both times around July-September. So glad you've been along for the journey all these years! 👍🏻 - Howard

loved seeing Scout on your hikes

Can you bring your dog with you into Denali?

[@Blessed2RV]

That was a great video! It was fun to revisit all your Alaska stops again! ❤️🏔️

Thanks, Lupe! We'll keep you posted when the Alaska guide is ready for your magic. 😏😎 -Howard

@@NewstateNomads Glad to help anytime! 😀

[@Desertmomof2]

I just came across these videos in preparation for our trip to Alaska this summer. They are so helpful as I'm trying to decide where & how to drive around this huge state. It makes me wish I could bring our two pugs! Thanks for your wonderful & entertaining videos.

[@NewstateNomads]

Kerry, we love hearing this so much and we're excited for your trip this summer to Alaska, too! We should be releasing our Alaska planning/travel guide in a few days that could certainly helping in your decisions (even though it is geared towards RVing, the recommendations of destinations, dining, etc would definitely apply to any driving trip around Alaska). Save this link for when the guide is live: www.newstatenomads.com/product/rving-in-alaska-planning-guide/

[@Desertmomof2]

@@NewstateNomads I look forward to this! Thanks for letting me know.

[@bobripley7138]

Thx!! We hope to do the Alaska, Yukon, NWT trip 2 or 3 years from now. This video, and the upcoming guide, will definitely help with the 1st portion of the trip. Also really looking forward to camping on the shore of the Arctic Ocean in Tuk!

[@karppadiem7014]

The beginning reminded me of going to the eye doctor - 1 or 2? Which one looks better - 1 or 2? Which path do we choose? 🤣 Hard not to try to do it all when you've come so far. Thanks for taking us along and for all of the excellent information. Looking forward to the guide. 💞 -Aimee

[@NewstateNomads]

Hahahaha, well the great news is you CAN still do it all regardless of direction, Aimee! Some events (like the Valdez Follies show) only run certain times of the year, which could impact the direction you may want to take first. We will be sure to cover that in our planning guide. 👍 -Howard

[@louheindel8673]

We are on a waitlist for one of the big box RV tours but would go with you guys!👍😊. Your information is so well done. Thank you. All the RV tours have waitlisted out several years ☹️ but with your help maybe we’ll go alone!!! 💪

[@jenniferdiehl1904]

Hi, guys, luckiest guys in the world. I wish I could be you with my boyfriend. I will get out there with him sooner or earlier. But anyways thanks for showing this blog. I absolutely love it, watched it 2 or 3 × 2 me. You covered a lot and scenery too. Love it, love it. Can't wait to get out there. I'm a Colorado freak but I wanna explore Alaska too.

[@azzkikin1]

Trying to get your Alaska book but the site just keeps trying to load the "your order" section. Are you out of stock?

[@NewstateNomads]

It's a digital PDF and interactive map, but the demand has been doing a number on our site! If you check the site now, you should be good to go. Thanks for letting us know! 👍 -Howard

[@azzkikin1]

@@NewstateNomads I knew ti is a digital PDF, just didn't know if the website had a out of stock option to stop sales while the site was being updated or anything. It worked now. thank you very much.

[@NewstateNomads]

Great! So glad you were able to get it. Hope you find it helpful! Happy planning!

[@nathanurick8320]

I’m not fortunate enough to have a rig like you, I have a 40’ 5th wheel. Can I even do a trip like this as you two did with a big rig.

[@emanoelpaulino1935]

I wished you show a video totally about North polo

[@IamaDutch-Kiwi]

I just want to say " Thank you" for my second wonderful Alaskan experience. Watching this brought back all those other visuals of your Alaskan series. Brilliant, absolutely brilliant review and revisit of these highlights. Onward to your next adventure in Canada. 💖 🙏 🇳🇿 🙋‍ 🇳🇱

[@geraldb9706]

Katelyn and Howard, I thoroughly enjoyed your series on Alaska and watching every episode. This video is a fantastic recap on all the choices and highlights that one needs to know. I sure hope I can make it to Alaska at some point in my life, and at 61 who knows how long a guys got heh!? LoL. Anyway great stuff as always and I look forward to your next videos hopefully coming from my home country. 🤗 Peace and Calm. 👍🏻😎🇨🇦

[@pglen6042]

TY for the express travel tour, lol

[@joeredmond9030]

Hello from montreal where is your VIDIO on Alberta ? and did you get to the HOT SPRINGS ?

[@Thesaltymedic36]

Definitely a cool trip. I’m hoping to spend 3-4 months up there. It’s definitely wild country up there. No desire to go to Prudhoe bay? Just to get to the Arctic Circle, just because 🤷🏼‍♂️. Great recap 👍🏼

[@gwchant]

Planning a trip this July/August. Two questions. 1) How are the mosquitos? And 2) We will likely be bringing our two small dogs. Did you leave your dogs in the RV when you went on pet restricted tours/spas or was there another option? Thanks so much. Heading to your website now.

[@NewstateNomads]

So excited for you to experience Alaska! The two summers we have made the trip, we didn't find the mosquitoes to be terrible. However 2019 was unseasonably hot & dry and 2021 was unseasonably cold. So that definitely could have played a factor in keeping them down. As far as the pups, we always leave them in the RV when we can't bring them. They're safe and comfortable here. We have an automatic fan that turns on in case it gets too warm in the RV, although in AK it should be mild most of the time. And I will also use a webcam when we have internet service to keep an eye on them too. Hope that helps! -Katelyn

[@gwchant]

@@NewstateNomads thank you for the speedy reply. Sorry to be a pest, but could you tell me what type of webcam you use in your RV? Gerry

[@NewstateNomads]

No problem at all! This is the one we use :) amzn.to/3umg1Ve

@@NewstateNomads thanks again. Safe travels. Maybe someday our paths will pass.

[@peacefulwife5199]

That was a really fun recap of your trip. Were the pups taking turns with the camera? 😂

[@NewstateNomads]

Exactly! 😂 Their camera work is best when all they have to do is start and stop recording, lol. -Howard

Hi we are planing to drive to Alaska this 2022 summer,my insurance car co do not cover Alaska witch one do you recomend to avoid problems in canada and alaska?

Did you have to have a Covid test when you left Alaska and went back into Canada? Thanks for the video's. We're going to try to make the trip next summer.
