Some of the books, magazine, websites, and pamphlets used to plan this trip include:

  • Karo Enterprises Website (Complements The Milepost well)
  • 2005 Trailer Life Directory
  • Woodalls Website

  • Fodor’s Alaska
  • Traveler’s Guide to Alaskan Camping
  • Adventure Guide to the Alaska Highway
  • Frommer’s Alaska 2004
  • Insight Guides Alaska
