The Alaska interactive map and photos from the two RV Gypsies' RV adventure in 2009

Use the all inclusive menu listed under the map below. This is the BEST WAY because not every place is included on the map. Plus, items on the map are for informative purpose only and cannot be chosen from the map.
bullet Once you click on item 1a (below the map), you can continue the journey all the way to the finish line without returning to this page.

bullet NOTHING can be reached from the green circles on the map. Its sole purpose is to highlight the places the two RV Gypsies visited. But ALL can be reached from the MENU BELOW THE MAP. Enjoy!
