question about Alaska
Posted: Fri Mar 04, 2011 10:43 amFirst can't wait for race to start. Still thinking about my pics--Lance is of course pick for first.
Thought this good time to ask this question since lots of people on board next 2 weeks.
Husband and I are thinking of going to Alaska next year. Thinking to mainly going to Denali Park since our main interest is hiking, also some side trips.
If we go end August--what would be the bug situation ? We have hiked in White Mts with black flies--miserable.
Do not want to camp--too old for that. We are in our late 60's but in good shape. Hiked 65 miles last year in Canadian Rockies. But I want a bed, shower and restaurant at night.
So who has recommendations for the lodges in Denali, hikes, etc.
Thank you.
