If you head up this way you should spend a day or two around Delta Junction. If you like the rural lifestyle you might just enjoy Delta. It has more of a Montana rural feel with a fair amount of agricultural land around the community. If you come through Fairbanks be sure to book a night up at Chena Hot Springs. The northern lights up there can be downright phenomenal.The Hot Springs areabout 50 miles northeast of Fairbanks on a well maintained road.

Bartlett's books are a great resource. If you want even more info you should check out his forum through his website, Pristine Ventures. Lots of AK info in there and a good place for a newbie to start asking questions.

While you're in Anchorage you should swing into the Wiggy's Alaska store and talk to Marc Taylor. Marc's a great guy to kick back and have a cup of coffee with and shoot the breeze. Just don't spend too much time playing withthe Wiggy'sgear, or you'll want it all.

Good luck with the research. There's a lot to learn, but there's a lot of people that will help you if you ask the right questions.

Feel free to PM me as well, Bob. I am not a seasoned Alaskan hunter (something I hope to change), but I can get you into some good saltwater fishing next spring/summer. I'd be happy to take you along.

In the mean time, there are plenty of places you can get some range time in. There are two rifle/pistol ranges near Anchorage, and an indoor pistol range in Palmer.

If you are driving up the Alaska Highway (I've done it twice), I recommend getting a few books-on-tape. Listening to a couple of books is a great way to eat up some road. Unlike music, that you can drown out and become sleepy, books require you to pay attention and stay alert.

Thanks guy's for the info.
I will shoot you an email when I get ready to start driving around. I am going to read as much as I can so when the weather gets a little better I will have a bunch of places to check out.
Thanks Again
