J.W. - Lifelong, born and raised AK. Intimate knowledge of the entire South Central AK road system and all towns, trails, villages within 100 miles of said road. I am willing to share info on trails, bears, hitchhiking, hostels, campgrounds, festivals, music, beer...etc

Diane Fleeks - Unlike most Alaskans, I actually grew up here! As a long-time resident of Fairbanks, I know the Interior well enough to have worked for the Park Service providing tourist information. I currently serve on the Board of Directors of the Fairbanks Community Museum, so am well versed in local history. In addition I have taken classes on Alaskan natural history and can babble on at length about the wonders of our boreal forest. Recently I have been roped into playing tour director in Denali National Park, which I visit every year, so consider me a resource!

Alexsandra Trofka - I've been to Alaska twice and absolutely loved all of it - Anchorage, Denali, Fairbanks, Homer, Seward, etc. Even though I drove alone most of the time, I never felt afraid; never encountered one problem.

Tracy - I have lived in Alaska for over 25 years. I lived within 30 miles of Fairbanks, Homer, Seward and Haines. But ask about any part of the state!

Chris VanSice - I can offer info on Denali National Park area. I summered in the area from age 16-26. I can make available a number of tips/suggestions that people won't get anywhere else.

John Little - I've spent the last 2 summers in Soldotna on the Kenai peninsula. I've extensively travelled the area by road and boat and have a bunch of great friends who can help out too.

Jennifer Titus - Alaska's Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and the Kluane National Park, Yukon are part of the largest internationally-protected wilderness area on earth. I can help you find trails, accommodations, transportation, activities, whatever... I'm always happy to correspond with people who are traveling our beautiful wilderness.

Mike McQuary - Many years as a resident of Interior Alaska, including Denali Park area, Fairbanks, and villages and areas outside of....up and down the Yukon River and along the Alaska Railroad. Very Familar with Anchorage as well.

John Stedman - I've lived in Alaska for over 20 years, in all parts of the state. Still travel frequently throughout the state. Am also a veteran budget traveler, so I can give advice to travelers wanting to see Alaska on a tight budget, or wishing to get to out of the way locations.

Jennifer Carman - I lived in Ketchikan for a little more than 2 years and can give you a good deal of information on southeast Alaska, particularly southern southeast.

Lauren - I've driven from Boston to Alaska and back twice, and done some other pretty long road trips, so anything about driving or Alaska I know quite a bit about.

Kevin Mader - I can answer questions about the bottom half of Alaska.

Scott McMurren - I've lived in Anchorage for 21 years and have travelled extensively throughout the state. Not only along the road system from Fairbanks to Seward, Homer, Kenai and Alyeska. But also to Prudhoe Bay, Nome, Kotzebue, Bethel, Dillingham, King Salmon, Dutch Harbor, the Akiakchak Volcano, the Tikchik River, the Goodnews River and Kodiak. Also, I've fished on Lake Creek, the Little Su, the Kenai River...among other spots.

Terry Gonzales - I spent most of my teenage years in Kodiak. Winters are not as harsh as in Anchorage or Fairbanks.

Michael McCann - The Interior of Alaska is a rather large area with warm summers and cold (its relative) winters. We have lots of daylight in the summer and little daylight in the winter. We do have lots of aurora borealis in the winter to make up for the lack of day light. We also have the tallest mountain in North America - Mt McKinley.

Kirk - I lived in Seward, Alaska for two years and travelled through most of the state. I also have worked for the National Park Service.

Paget Engen - I have lived a number of places - Juneau, Alaska - Eugene and Portland, OR - and would be happy to answer questions about these areas.
