Reader Reviews
This review is from: Traveler's Guide to Alaskan Camping: Explore Alaska and the Yukon With Rv or Tent (Traveler's Guide to Alaskan Camping: Explore Alaska & the Yukon with) (Paperback) I found this book to be more informative than the Milepost, as it is better organized and shows campgrounds and facilities that are of interest to those people who are planning to camp with RV or tent. The book shows all campgrounds in each section of road traveled and also describes activities that are available in the area. It is informative and clearly written with excellent directions for locating attractions. Though I have not been to Alaska yet, I did show this book to fellow travelers who have used the Milepost and it was met with enthusiastic response.
