I spent 3 weeks up there with my Westfalia camper, driving all over the place. The best guide book is Alaska Milepost. What's fun is driving down the long, unpaved back roads to places like Eagle and McCarthy. Because it was always light (it was June) our sleep schedule got way off.

One highlight was pulling into a road house on the road to Eagle, on the Yukon River, for gas at 1 AM. (it was still sunny out) We ended up staying there until about 4AM, as they asked us to stay for a birthday party. We drank free beer and ate moose with mashed potatos. It's those little things with the nice folks that one remembers. I have many other memories like that.
