I'm thinking about moving to Alaska but want to go and visit for a few weeks before I move there. I'd kind of like to get a feel for the whole state so I plan on keeping on the move and visiting several different parts.

Be sure to include Southeast Alaska in your travels. Juneau and Sitka are a little isolated, but Haines and Skagway are on the road system. I can tell you more if you're interested. Let me know.

The hot spots are along the South East coastal lines of Alaska. I have lived in Sitka and Cordova also been through Haines the eagles are the best and moste exciting to see moste of all. People here in Alaska like to see the glaciers calving. The best way to see them would be going on a tour boat like Kenai Fjords Tours http://alaska.org/seward/kenai-fjords-tours.jsp Another hot spot is Seward, in which cruise ships make a stop from early part of May to mid Sept. http://www.SewardAlaska.com.
