Alaskan Camper Rentals

Alaska trip: Which campground in Denali NP? David in Kenai: please answer this if you know. I am going with my boyfriend to Alaska for 7 days leaving 22nd August and returning 29 August home. We know what we want to do; kayak or canoe in Prince William Sound, see the fjords in Kenai, flightseeing over Denali, maybe fishing one day and of course hiking. There are no available campsites at Wonder Lake, so which of the other campgrounds in Denali would you recommend? And from Anchorage do you suggest we go south first or north first? Anyone else have ideas?

Can anyone reccomend good campgrounds in the Yukon? Going from Whitehorse, up to Alaska, down to Dawson City and back to Whitehorse

Heading for Alaska. Taking the motorhome. Heard you couldn't take knives. Is this true? I have steak knives and butcher knives and butter knives, just your normal kitchen stuff. These things are in my motorhome. Does this mean if I'm at a campground in Canada and decide to barbeque steaks, I have to pull them apart with my hands? Heard you couldn't take knives across the boarder into Canada?

Is The Pope Ready For Alaska? On a tour of Alaska, the Pope took a couple of days off to visit the mountains for some sightseeing. He was cruising along a campground in the Pope-mobile when there was a frantic commotion just at the edge of the woods. A helpless scrawny disheveled Democrat, wearing sandals, shorts, and a "Save the Whales" T-shirt, was struggling frantically, thrashing around and trying to free himself from the jaws of a 10-foot grizzly. As the Pope watched, horrified, a group of Republican loggers came racing up. One quickly fired a 44 magnum into the bear's chest. The other two reached up and pulled the bleeding semiconscious Democrat from the bear. Then, two of them threw it onto the bed of their truck while the other carefully placed the injured Democrat in the back seat. As they prepared to leave, the Pope summoned them to come over. "I give you my blessing for your brave actions!" he told them. "I heard there was a bitter hatred between loggers and environmental activists, but I've now seen with my own eyes that is not true." As the Pope drove off, one of the loggers asked his buddies, "Who was that guy?" "It was the Pope, you idiot!" another replied. "He's in direct contact with God and has access to all God's wisdom." "Well," the logger said, "he may have access to all God's wisdom, but he sure doesn't know anything about bear hunting. And thinking about that, is the bait holding up OK or do we need to go back to town and grab another one?"

What would you do? (Daisy!!!)? While vacationing in Alaska, I couldn't help but notice all the warnings about bears posted in campgrounds, visitors' centers and rest areas advising people not to feed the bears, how to avoid bears, what to do if a bear sees you, what to do if a bear attacks, and so on. My favorite, however, was a hand-lettered sign on the door of a small gas station in a remote area. It said: "Warning! If you are being chased by a bear, don't come in here!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mav leaves a joke for Daisy to raise her spirits

Bear Hunting With the Pope? The Pope took a couple of days off to visit the Rugged Mountains of Alaska for some sightseeing. He was cruising along the campground in the Pope Mobile when there was a frantic commotion just at the edge of the woods. A helpless Democrat, wearing sandals, shorts, a "Save the Whales" hat, and "To Hell with Bush" T-shirt, was screaming while struggling frantically and thrashing around trying to free himself from the grasp of a 10-foot grizzly bear. As the Pope watched in horror, a group of Republican loggers came racing up. One quickly fired a .44 magnum into the bear's chest. The other two reached up and pulled the bleeding, semiconscious Democrat from the bear's' grasp. Then using long clubs, the three loggers finished off the bear and two of them threw it onto the bed of their truck while the other tenderly placed the injured Democrat in the back seat. As they prepared to leave, the Pope summoned them to come over. "I give you my blessing for your brave actions!" he told them. "I heard there was a bitter hatred between Republican loggers and Democrat Environmental activists but now I've seen with my own eyes that this is not true." As the Pope drove off, one of the loggers asked his buddies "Who was that guy?" "It was the Pope," another replied. "He's in direct contact with Heaven and has access to all wisdom." "Well," the logger said, "he may have access to all wisdom but he sure doesn't know anything about grizzly bear hunting! By the way, is the bait holding up, or do we need to go back to Massachusetts and get another one?

Places for outdoor survival vacations? I am interested in camping alone in the wilderness for a week. If I do it i will be doing it right (taking survival classes, reading up, etc...). I would realy like some information regarding where places are that I can legaly go. Please note that I am not interested in going to some public campground with a running water bathroom 20 yards away. I'm talking real outdoor survival. Also nothing too extreme such as the middle of alaska in december, I dont want to end up like Chris McCandless either.

Looking for a job for married couple (with children.)? My husband and I are interested in working together, possibly as a caretaker or at a campground/ranch/resort type setting. We've searched sites like caretaker.org, etc but does anyone know of anything like this that offers living quarters and allows children (salary & benefits would be nice too?!) Anywhere in the Midwest to Western USA, Alaska or even Southwest area in US.

Have you ever hit a grizzly bear while driving? Driver Hits Grizzly Crossing Anchorage Street ANCHORAGE, Alaska - One moment Howard Hawkins Jr. was driving to get an early morning cup of coffee and the next he hit a large grizzly bear running at a full gallop across one of Anchorage's busiest streets. "It is just unreal," Hawkins said Friday, less than 12 hours after his 2002 Land Rover struck the bear. "I didn't have time to react. I wasn't even able to hit my brakes or anything. What stopped the forward motion of the car is that I ran into a big bear." Hawkins, 57, plowed into the bear shortly before 4 a.m. in what is the latest in a summer of close encounters between human and bruin in Alaska's largest city. The male bear came out of the woods from one of Anchorage's many greenbelts. It was struck on a four-lane highway near a large car dealership and RV campground. The collision pushed in the front end of Hawkins' Land Rover. The vehicle's air bags deployed but Hawkins was uninjured. He called 911 and got out of his car to await police. The bear, angry and in a lot of pain with a broken leg, was behind the Land Rover stumbling around, roaring and growling. Officers arrived within minutes and advised Hawkins to get back in his vehicle; he did. At one point, the bear charged the officers, police spokesman Paul Honeman said. The grizzly made its way off the road and back into the woods, where officers found it and killed it. The bear was a 15-year-old grizzly that was part of a state Fish and Game research study to determine how many bears there are in Anchorage. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080823/ap_on_re_us/bear_killed;_ylt=AjakmYEZss8Mr35Oy8EDRlcDW7oF

Have you ever heard any of these jokes before? I didn't and I laughed so hard.?

I asked.??Pointing to the side of the car, he complained about the paint not matching, uneven gaps between panels, and a host of other problems. He demanded an explanation.??"The repairs were to the other side," I noted. === Bear Warnings While vacationing in Alaska, I couldn't help but notice all the warnings about bears posted in campgrounds, visitors' centers, and rest areas advising people not to feed the bears, how to avoid bears, what to do if a bear sees you, what to do if a bear attacks, and so on.??My favorite, however, was a hand-lettered sign on the door of a small gas station in a remote area.

"My side will win." ==? While watching a movie recently, I couldn't hear the dialogue over the chatter of the two women sitting in front of me. Unable to bear it any longer, I tapped one of them on the shoulder.??"Excuse me," I said, "I can't hear."??"I should hope not," she replied sharply. "This is a private conversation."

Anyone have a joke about hunters and live bait? The Pope Visits Alaska The Pope took a couple of days off to visit the rugged mountains of Alaska for some sightseeing.

What is the best place in WA state to hike, camp, and fish but secluded? I've been trying to find a good place to take my buddies that we can go hike and camp somewhere by a river that we can fish at. We're use to Alaska's style of camping where there isn't anything but you and your tent, but Washington seems to have very convienent campgrounds with stores and restaurants and that's not our style, we just want to rough it and fish.

i live in alaska whats the best campground? tents and plenty of trees with the ability to have campfires and not die from bears and stuff like that

Why don't more Canadians travel to Whitehorse? Most Canadians never mention how amazing Whitehorse, YT is and I saw it. It's a GREAT town! They have really good Arctic Char, you have scenic access to Haines, Skagway, Carcross, Liard Hot Springs, Takhini, the Klondike, Dempster Highway to Inuvik, Alaska Highway, Kluane Lake, Alaska, Sternwheeler to DAWSON CITY! Mine for Gold and Silver. It's a great place. 21 hours of sunshine in June, great campgrounds, And lots of fun bears and moose and caribou AND if you are a single Canadian and want to get to know a significant other really well, you should drive her from Edmonton to Whitehorse on 3 long fun days up up up up up North North North North North west west west west west. Why are Canadians so anti-Whitehorse??? you want to go to Whitehorse for cheaper? Here's how! 1) Take Greyhound Bus Montreal to New York City! 2) Fly New York City to Anchorage, Alaska (ROUNDTRIP $390.00) 3) Take bus to Tok, then bus to Whitehorse.

Going east through Canada, which route is better, Highway 16 or Highway 1? I'm taking a summer road trip across Canada from Alaska. I've seen most of Canada West of Calgary but this time I'll be going to the east side of Manitoba before going south into the US. I'd like to know which route is better for sight-seeing and getting the "Canada experience"? Also any suggestions of free things to do & see, and campgrounds - especially provincial parks - are welcome!

Very odd and vivid dream? basically me and 2 of my friends, my best friend and another friend that i can't remember, we went into a campground to play a videogame. I invited this girl i really like to come and she showed up. We played some game and i can't remember for awhile. The next thing i know that girl i like is asking my best friend out and trying to convince his parents that she's a nice girl. I can't remember another chunk and then i remember walking around with them and seeing a grizzly bear jump out of a lake and chase us. It chased us for a good chunk of time, eventually we trapped it inside a house and ran away, only to see all of its cubs around our campgrounds. It got out and chased us some more, then i blacked out and we packed up our videogames and left. I was born in alaska so i'm not stranger to seeing grizzly bears in the wild. The campground was not unsimilar to the forests i grew up next too.
