Are there really good high/dry campsites along the route? I'm a veteran of Prince William Sound, the Charlottes and Patagonian Chile, and while the nature is magnificent, camping right in a swamp is never magnificent.>>> <snip> Yeah, but I've heard they have fascinationg wildlife up there that makes up for some of the poor camping spots, like huge Stellars Sea Eagles. I heard recently that a plane load of Alaskans saw one with a wing-span of a small Piper Cub. Holy cow!!!! Mystery Alaska, or what.
