Transportation
Willow is approximately a 1.5 hour drive from Anchorage, Uber/LYFT may not travel that far and is limited in the Willow area. Recommend renting a car from Turo or other car rental agencies. There is a possibility that we can send a driver to pick you up from the airport depending on your arrival times. We do have a couple of vehicles that we can help shuttle people as needed. You will need to coordinate this with Jobe
Activities
For the activities that have a cost associated with them listed in the itinerary, you will need to pay in advance to make reservations.
Will John and Taryn join in on activities
We will join as we can but may not be able to go with you on all activities.
What to wear in AK
AK is all about layering, as simple as a t-shirt, long sleeve and a fleece sweater BUT ALWAYS bring a rain jacket and should be fully waterproof. You may not need it, but you never know. We will be traveling to a few different destinations and elevations. Bring more than 1 pair of shoes to AK, you could get one wet – think 1 hiking boot/shoe and one pair tennis shoes or more!
Don't be surprised if you have to change outfits a couple times a day.
Heading Home
The same as coming in, willow is 1.5 hours from anchorage and uber and lyft are not really an option till you get to anchorage. We will shuttle as many as we can where needed. If you do have a rental car and other people leaving around the same time, please help were you can
