Alaska itinerary - can we do this in 10 days?
Here's our proposed itinerary - is this a decent schedule? I want to see all these things, but don't want to be rushing.
day 1 - arrive Anchorage
2 - drive to Seward, spend 3 nights (want to do Kenai Fjords all-day cruise, see sled dogs, hike Exit Glacier)
day 5- drive to Homer - spend 2 nights
day 7- fly to Silver Salmon Creek for bear viewing; spend night
day 8 - fly back to Homer, drive to Denail
day 9- bus into Denali
day 10-- drive back to Anchorage
day 11- depart

Why are you going back to Anchorage on Day 10? I would say skip Anchorage--maybe spend the night there on your way to Denali. Homer to Denali is too far a drive.
I am assuming you have a late flight on Day 11. Denali to Anchorage is about 5 hours. You have time to do a little sightseeing in Anchorage then.
Have you made reservations at Silver Salmon Creek? That will be wonderful.
