Visiting the Mat-Su Valley in 2025

Planning to visit Palmer, Wasilla, Talkeetna, or somewhere else in the Matanuska-Susitna (aka Mat-Su) Valley in 2025 as part of an Alaska trip? You're gonna want to listen to this first!

Join me as I sit down (virtually) with Justin from the Mat-Su Convention & Visitors Bureau to discuss visiting this region and what you need to know specifically for visiting this year.

In the Q&A section, Justin answers the following questions: 

• Where to eat??!! (for families/non-foodies and those who are into the gourmet experience)
• What farms can you visit without having to sign up for a 3rd party tour?
• Where can you find souvenirs - both touristy and locally crafted?
• Is Hatcher Pass better from the Palmer or Willow side?
• Where can you park with an RV in the various parts of the Mat-Su Valley?

This is the audio-only version of the Mat-Su video in my 2025 Alaska Seminar Series. You can watch the video version on YouTube.

🗞️ Here are some extra resources to help you plan your trip to the Mat-Su:

• Visit Mat-Su (official website) 
• Visit the Mat-Su on Facebook
• Mat-Su Valley on Instagram

Y'all if you can believe it I do NOT have any blog resources about the Mat-Su Valley as of releasing this video... 🫣 I do have some articles on my to-write list, so I'll add them here once they're live!
