If they were in a National Park, I don't think that they can be armed legally. However, I am not sure about the parks in Alaska.

Each park has it's own rules. Alaska, if I recall, not only allows campers to be armed but encourages it as a responsible safety measure.

If they were in a National Park, I don't think that they can be armed legally. However, I am not sure about the parks in Alaska.M One interesting aspect of life in Alaska is that trains of the Alaska RailRoad run by the US Department of Transportation are required to stop for passengers when flagged down anywhere along the line, and they do.
When I rode the ARR, the most usual costuming was corduroys and flannel covered by a parka or Carhartt insulated coveralls and parka, though sometimes military ECWCCS gear was also seen, and Air Force flight line parkas were highly prized. But every single packframe or blanketroll aboard included a rifle or shotgun, every one-no exceptions, out of around 120 or so on board. Nicest bunch of folks you'd ever want to meet.
