When you said extensive, you meant it!!! ;)

 

Those should keep me occupied until I leave in 8 months! Thanks for sharing that to help others with their planning!!

Thanks for sharing! It will be a great help - especially to first-time Alaska visitors.

This is great thanks

Thanks for posting that. I am in the process of compiling a fairly exhaustive FAQ re: Alaska and would like to include those links if that is OK. Perhaps when my FAQ is finished, it can be used as a similar reference as your post would be.

Hi John - Please feel free to help yourself!

Just returned from my NB Alaska Trip but this will be helpful in planning my next. Thank you for taking the time, very useful.

Thank you so much for compiling this list. VERY helpful.:)

Thank you so much for compiling this list. VERY helpful.:)

 

I'm glad you found it and glad it helps...

Patrick,

 

What a wonderful list. I am using it as a reference for what to do and see in each of our ports. Thanks once again.

 

Jennie

What a selfless thing to do - and how many hours it must have taken you.

 

This has saved us hours (and hours) of research.

 

It's people like you that keep us coming back to Cruise Critics.

 

:D

We have a ultimate cruise to Alaska booked for this May and have doing all kinds of research. This list of links makes things so much easier. Thank You for the hard work!!

 

I thought this deserved to be brought back up to the top of the threads ...job well done!!

 

Thank You!

GMoney- You are a love for doing all that!

What a treat for those new to the board too!

Thanks!;)

WOW Thank you!!!!

 

Cathy

Glad y'all find the links helpful. I've moved them onto Delicious, so you can find an updated list at http://delicious.com/mellicon/Alaska. Use the "Related Tags" list on the right to narrow your search.

just a bump up so this work doesn't get lost in the shuffle!

This is such a kind thing to do for all of the Cruise Critic message board members. You are truly a kind and sincere person for sharing such an exhaustive piece of work with us.

I am going to enjoy researching the sources you provided for our cruise to Alaska in June.

Thanks, again!

thanks also! I am getting overloaded in my research but can't resist a "few" more sites to check out. :D

WOW! thanks so much

What an awesome resource, thanks for all your time!!!

What a great list, thanks for sharing.

Thanks for putting this list together. it should be a sticky on top of the board.
