You can create your own adventure, and tailor it to your skill level or to the ages and interests of the people in your party, or take a package tour, or even take a wilderness-adventure class, some for college credit, through the Alaska Wilderness Studies program at the University of Alaska-Anchorage, 907-786-4066.

However you go, and wherever you go, you'll enjoy yourself. To ensure you have the best trip possible, grab a copy of The Alaska Wilderness Guide, called "The most comprehensive guide available on back- country Alaska ...." by Todd Miner, Director of Alaska Wilderness Studies at the university. The Anchorage Daily News calls The Alaska Wilderness Guide "the authoritative guide to the backcountry."

The 552-page travel planner and guide, from the editors of the famous MILEPOST® guide, covers almost every activity you can think of, plus detailed information on campsites and cabins, and special features on attractions ranging from lighthouses to glaciers. You'll also find personal essays from people who have enjoyed a solitary walk on the beach at Lake Clark National Park and or paddled the Tatshenshini River from the mountains of Yukon Territory to the Gulf of Alaska.

Thank you, and enjoy your trip!
