This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alaska is the 49th and largest state in the United States of America. Separated from the rest of the country (the "lower 48") by Canada, Alaska lies on the Arctic Circle. It is still the least densely populated state in the union and for a long time was home to the lowest population. America's final frontier is the size of California, Texas and Montana combined, making it huge in comparison to the rest of the states! Alaska is also home to the highest point in North America and all of the top ten highest mountains in the USA. Across the Bering Strait lies the country of Russia and the continent of Asia. Most cities and villages in the state are accessible only by sea or air. The Alaska Marine Highway System also serves the cities of Southeast and the Alaska Peninsula. Cities not served by road or sea can only be reached by air, accounting for Alaska's extremely well-developed Bush air services-an Alaskan novelty. Alaska is huge. It actually spans what once were five time zones! So big in fact you probably won't scratch the surface of what it has to offer in terms of geography, wildlife, local flavor, or Alaska native culture. You might visit a couple of the regions of the state during your visit. It is quite possible to experience the ancient rainforest of Southeast Alaska, camp in Denali National Park, and kayak among icebergs in Prince William Sound on the same trip. Another option is to focus on a smaller (still huge) region of the state and spend enough time for a better look and then plan a return trip to explore a different region. Alaska does not have to be a once in a lifetime destination. Three weeks in the Inside Passage, traveling from town to town by ferry, is likely to leave you wanting more time if you enjoy hiking, sea kayaking, fishing, wildlife watching, scenery, Native culture, biking. The Kenai Peninsula, south of Anchorage, is another region worthy of an extended stay and is easily accessed from Anchorage. Plenty of public campgrounds make this an extremely affordable do-it-yourself destination if you have a few folks to share the cost of a rental car. An Anchorage, Denali, Fairbanks, Valdez driving loop also offers plenty to see and do for two weeks or more and can be quite affordable with camping and a shared rental car. There are many things to do when traveling to Alaska. If you are the adventurous type then Alaska will be a great place to go. You can go hiking, biking, kayaking, fishing, and expeditions to see the wildlife of Alaska like wolves, whales, moose, and bears. There are also month-long expeditions to the top of Denali. A journey on the Dalton Highway provides a very unique experience. The highway crosses mountains and tundra, the Arctic Circle, and 414 miles of pristine wilderness. Stay up late to see the midnight sun, it's fascinating to watch in the summer when daytime seems endless. Anyone traveling to Alaska should definitely make a trip to Denali; it is absolutely beautiful and the highest point in North America. You can see it from hundreds of miles away when there are clear skies. However, if you get the opportunity to take a trip to see it up close, do it. An ATV ride up the side of a mountain can be one of the most eventful experiences of your trip. On the way up the path, you will see vegetation and wildlife that you can't see anywhere else. Once you finally get to the top of the mountain, you will see one of the most beautiful sites in all of the United States. Digital cameras and photos don't do the mountain's beauty enough justice. The mosaic of blues, whites, grays, and greens will leave you absolutely astonished. Alaska travel guide Alaska guide book travel guide Alaska Alaska guide

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This adventure guide is written to advise you that Alaska and how you get there offers a lot more than these few things. Getting there from the lower 48 can be an additional exciting adventure, whether you fly, drive or go by boat. The most difficult part of writing this adventure guide was deciding not what to include but what, because of space limitations, to leave out.The places included are simply places we visited and enjoyed, places every family member, from the youngest to the oldest can enjoy.They are some of our personal favorites and we would like to share them with you. You don't have to start where we did or drive in the direction we did, you can start anywhere and join the route any place, go any direction as long as you enjoy the journey.This is not intended to be a technical reference work. You won't find maps, or detail direction. Instead, this guide is meant to encourage you to get out and sample some new places that might be fun, intriguing, strange, and maybe educational. Remember half of the fun traveling is discovery.Maybe it is time to get out your maps and start planning your trip to Alaska, California, Route 66 or some other part of this country. Keep in mind as you travel it is great to be flexible and consider all the additional attractions that may be just off the main highway.If for some reason you may not be able to travel at this time; health, wealth, or family, whatever, for the price of this adventure guide you can come along with us.We will be leaving Huntington, West Virginia, but you can join us anywhere along the way. We will be including web sites, descriptions, and side trips, purchased as a separate book.We have made a trip of over 11,000 miles but it can be separated into 3 smaller trips or adventures. The first adventure can be from the east coast to Great Falls MT. From Great Falls you can drive Interstate 90 to Seattle, WA, and then get back with our adventure at this city. This would be Trip A.The second mini-trip adventure is from Calgary BC to Whitehorse, YK Territory then to Vancouver, BC return to Highway 1 and back to Calgary. The places to see along the way are included in our adventure guide. This is Trip B.The third part of the adventure is Alaska it's self. It can begin in Anchorage, Fairbanks, or any city you decide to fly into or even arrive by boat. Our adventure guide provides information and directions for traveling throughout the state. This will be Trip C. The adventure can actually start as you review this fact and fun filled adventure guide. But before you grab your keys and pack your car for two days, two weeks, two months and head out to explore the natural beauty and diversity of the US and Canada use this guide to plan your adventure. Some of the most fun of the trip can be planning, before you ever start the car.Get some good road maps and plot your route to join ours. Do a little on-line surfing and see what others have to say about places and attractions. Check out the local book store for background on the things that most interest you. Visit the suggested web sites provided in this adventure guide.Volumes could be written about the many sites and attractions mentioned and there are a heap of fascinating details, and locations which must be saved for another day.This adventure guide isn't meant to be your sole travel guide and companion, it can be, instead we hope it will act as a spring board, compelling you to find out more and make your adventure uniquely your own.As we get ready for our adventure I am reminded of two western songs, the first is "On the Road Again" by Willie Nelson and the second is "Happy Trails to You," by Roy Rogers, and these are our hope for you. Come along with us for the adventure of a lifetime....

Book excerpt: Excerpt from California and Alaska, and Over the Canadian Pacific Railway In accordance with a time-honored custom, I must, at the outset, explain in a few words why this work is given to the public. In the winter of 1888-9, I determined upon taking a trip with my family across the continent to the Pacific coast, and from thence to the city of Mexico. A few friends were invited to accompany us on our journey. The intention was to be absent about three months and a half, and the 1st of March, 1889, was agreed upon as the starting-day. But the severe illness of my daughter, which began but a few days prior to our time for leaving, disarranged all our plans, and the day of departure was postponed until the first week in April. The more I thought of this proposed journey, the more interesting and important it seemed to me in the prospective.

Book excerpt: In 1973, I am 22 years old, and a city kid. I enlisted in the Navy and got out after the Vietnam War. I travel to interior Alaska, a 'Cheechako' (Greenhorn) by Alaskan standards. But I have been raised on Walt Disney and feel qualified to be a mountain man! I arranged with a pilot to drop me off in the wilds of Alaska. I do not have everything I need and have things I do not need. I learn about guns, trapping, and the loneliness of living in the vast wilderness with no other humans around. I do not see anyone for many months, then walk out of the wilds to civilization in the spring. After working odd jobs to make supply money, I return to the wilds in the fall and have a hard time my second winter. I almost die and need to be rescued. I decide to build a houseboat so I can travel around without having to build another cabin. I have to accept summer work in Fairbanks to pay for the boat materials and work under a builder. The boat takes much longer to build than expected. I live as a street person much of the time to keep expenses down.
