I'm doing some research work about a possible trip for this summer to visit Alaska.

The idea is doing the ferry from Bellingham to Whittier, AK one way (either to or from) and the other by car. Any suggestion which way to take?

Also, where to visit in AK? So far I have Kenai Fjord National Park for Glacier when arriving at Whittier (assuming ferry to there), Seward, Cooper Landing (fishing), Anchorage and head north until Fairbanks.

From Fairbanks we'd do a day trip to Barrow, AK by air just for the sake of visiting both the Northernmost and Southernmost cities in the America continent. After that, leaving early in the morning to make to Whitehorse, YT in day1 driving. Then slowly make our way back to Van.

Has anyone done the trip before? What are the recommendations? I am getting some suggestion on taking the Cassiar hwy (37) as an alternative route from Whitehorse to Prince George. Any word on that?
