Anchorage - largest city, most museums (of Art and History, Aviation, Native Cultural, etc), most people and most commerce in the state. Need to make airflight connections to the rest of the state to the N and W.

Fairbanks - coldest and hottest temps of any Alaskan city, Alaskaland historical park, great aurora viewing.

Kenai/Soldotna - Largest sport-caught salmon in the world (97 pounds) was caught here. Many people come to try their hand at King, Red and Coho salmon fishing.

Denali National Park - Obvious place to go! Tallest mountian in North America. Excellent wildlife viewing for grizzlies, Dall sheep and caribou. Pretty good for moose and wolf.

NcNeil River State OR Brook's Camp in Katmai National Park (one or the other) - superb bear viewing during the summer salmon runs. Almost all photos you've seen of bears fishing in a river were taken at one of these two places.

Seward - oldest railroad town in AK, Sealife Center is an excellent aquarium. Jumping off spot for day tours or longer of Kenai Fjords National Park. Town is in a beauty setting.

Homer - spectacular views in three directions of glaciated mountains and volcanos across the salt water. Easiest place to catch a halibut (which might weigh more than you do). Active artist community, relatively mild climate for south-central Alaska.

Prudhoe Bay - start of the Alaskan Pipeline. Tour the oilfield, stick your toe in the Arctic Ocean.

Valdez - set in a Fjords, it is very mountainous there - sort of like if you flooded Switzerland. terminus of the Alaskan Pipeline. Great heli-skiing.

Off the road system:

Juneau - state capital, other then Hawaii's, the only state capital off the North American road system.

Dutch Harbor - remote Aleutian Island that lands more tonnage of seafood than any other US port. Museum of the Aleutian with native and WWII displays (Japanese bombed Dutch in 1942). Bird watchers go there so see birds not seen on the mainland.

Barrow - northernmost US and North American town. Good aurora viewing. Very interesting in the spring and fall if there is a whale hunt going on. Largely native population.

Nome - end of the Iditarod sled dog race. Site of famous 1925 dyptheria epidemic (reason for the first "serum run" dog sled relay). Old gold dredges, etc. Wyatt Earp was once sheriff.

Peterburg - very Scandanavian feeling to this century-old fishing town.
