In August my girlfriend and I will be coming to Alaska (via San Fran) for a holiday from Australia. It is a fair journey so we want to make the most of it.
We only have a few days in San Fran and we planned on visiting Kuiu and Bass Pro and checking out the city but looking for other ideas too. There are no Cabelas or big outdoors stores in Aus so it is definitely on my to do list.
We then are heading to Anchorage and have booked a 6 day float fishing trip on Lake Creek and then 3 days at Denali. We then planned to head back to Anchorage but we have about 4 days free so can really do anything. Cabelas is on the must see list but we are also looking at maybe heading down the Kenai Peninsula and trying to see some wildlife down there and maybe some fishing from the banks of the rivers.
I would really appreciate any advice on must see places, tips on where to go to see wildlife (bears / Goats / Sheep / Moose / Caribou in particular) and maybe a place to throw a line in.
Also it would be great to meet some of you guys and I would be glad to have a beer and chat hunting and learn about the incredible hunting that you guys have up there.
Cheers,
James
