Oh well we just did end of May a trip for 10 days through Alaska with
some Glastar/Sportsman, however we opted more for the outdoor.
You can see some videos here:

the Alaskan Runway gives you an idea about some of the things you could
expect runway wise if you want to try out dirt strips (with a wing
camera), dings on the prop and the taildragger stabilizer were very common!
You will be fine if you opt for the sealed strips only, if you go dirt
strips I would not go with fairings and look for enough prop clearance
and preferable metal props.

Glasair III? Are most Alaska strips considered rough fields? Sounds
like fun!
