Alaska Guide offers many unique opportunities to travelers unsurpassed beauty of our nation's 49th state an awesome sense of nature in all its glory. Alaska is a wonderful and fascinating place. Whether its backcountry hiking, coastline kayaking or dining on a downtown deck, there truly is something for everyone.
There's a reason the U.S. state with the most land has such a small population: Life in many parts of Alaska is no walk in the park. Particularly if you live outside of a city and have to contend with polar bears, earthquakes, the occasional volcanic eruption or tsunami, those extreme Arctic temperatures, not to mention the often dark and depressing weather. In this Wide Angle we celebrate these challenges, along with some of Alaska's beauties.
