We will go. We will go for sight seeing around Alaska in prior by cruise and then proceed to Salem (Oregon) for eclipse observation. Plan B site is Madras.

The trip will last for two weeks departing HKG at 9th August 2017 and returning at 23rd August.

It's a little late planning the Eclipse trip now since all the hotels in the umbra belt are fully booked.

We may stay in a recreational vehicle. No need to book hotel.

Then go ahead. Good luck and good eclipse seeing.

Go to Seattle a few days in prior and pick up your campervan there and proceed to Portland via no.5 highway. Portland is very close to the umbra belt already. On Eclipse day early in morning drive a little bit southward toward Salem and watch the Eclipse on roadside. Returning your campervan and proceecd to airplane head for HKG on same day.

You save a lot of $$$ this way.

if you are aggressive enough then proceed to Madras and stay there overnight before the day of Eclipse. Madras is the best place for the Eclipse - lowest cloud coverage and beautiful scenery around.

Madras is not far away from Portland.

Agree, it is too late to plan.

Our group will go to Wyoming. After the ellipse, we will spend another week at Yellowstone and Grand Teton.

我計劃去大蒂頓西面的小鎮, 如Victor, Driggs附近觀賞日蝕, 之後一個多星期就遊覽大蒂頓及黃石公園。
其實最擔心天氣,如果天氣不理想,可能會沿ID33公路走,再找觀察地點,因為ID33公路都在蝕帶中央附近。
你計劃在懷俄明州邊到睇日蝕呀?

If weather forecast is OK, we will be in Glendo.
In case weather is not OK, backup plan is driving to North-Platte by route80.

Summer is a PEAK season of yellowstone even without total eclipse, RV-park may be fully booked in GT and YellowStone region. Lodge/cabin/hotel was fulled 1 yr ago.
