My sister and brother in law live outside of Willow, and I'm planning on heading up there next year to do some moose hunting/salmon fishing in August. Generally most of the area gets quite a bit of pressure, but my brother-in -law has private access to an area that is virtually impossible to reach any other way, and they see a lot of moose there. I was in Alaska last July and loved it, I think it would be a great place to live. Unfortunately my wife just thinks it's a great place to visit.
