    well there are a lot of things you have to factor in but the main ones are... weather, terrain & wildlife.

    i'm not sure exactly the wildlife in alaska but i'm pretty sure the main 2 you have to worry about are there... grizzlies and cougars.. you definetly don't want to cross either of them.

    backpacking in place like the alaskan backcountry is gonna be heavy duty for sure. i would suggest doing a lot of research on this one and go with someone who has done it before.

    i also don't know what your level of survival/camping skills are so its tough to say... what are some of your past treks?
