Tenequip,
Do you plan to visit the Denali National Park or the Chugach Mountains?

Alaska Trip
 
I will be going right pass Denali, but hadn't planned on stopping, because I think the only access is by bus. Not familiar with the Chugach Mountains, but will look into them.

I agree with what checkerdd says. Many a trip has ended on the Dalton and it matters not if you think you're a great rider. The weather changes everything.
The dirt road across to Paxson is fantastic and well worth it. Stop off at "Crazy Dog Kennels" to find out about all things husky.

Looks like there is enough riders heading North this Summer to have a party.
Count us in, we are an Aussie couple on a Tiger 800XC. Should be there during July/August

So keep a lookout for a Triumph Tiger with a large white 8 Gallon Safari tank, wave us done for a chat

Hi!,
To add a bit of encouragement, I rode to Prudhoe Bay in August last year. Coldfoot to P.Bay and cross Atigun Pass on 24 August 2013. Atigun Pass was clear though snowing that time. I was on a KLR.

Safe Ride.

No I haven't, but I intend to give it a try this summer. I would like also, to hear from someone, who has done it.

Are you looking for someone to make the trip with you or just meet up somewhere along the way?

Tenequip,
I responded to your email. Can you verify that you got it? Thanks.

If you see a couple of tiny people on a green KLR stop us for a chat. We will be up around Inuvik mid to late July and in Oz next year. We would love to pick your brain about Australia from above the Arctic Circle!

Always up for a chat Adrian, we are on a Triumph Tiger 800XC with a huge Safari long range tank and Jesse panniers
Even if we don't happen to cross paths I can point you in the right direction
