Spend time in Alaska
Alaska is vast…. of the mind boggling variety of vast.

One state that contains 365 million acres of stunning freshwater rivers, rugged inspiring coastline, mountainous peaks, flat tundral stretches and even areas of lush rain forest.

It’s like four nations within a nation from the panhandle islands of it’s southeast to the inaccessible regions of the the Arctic, Kodiak Island, the west and southwest, the Alaskan Peninsula, and the Aleutians. Astonishingly, one could cover a million acres a day and still need a year to get around this vast land.

Getting the picture? This region is so unimaginably big that it’s more than four times the area of Los Angelos and containing 5000 Glaciers.

It’s one big piece of real estate and possibly represents the greatest value real estate sale of all time having been bought by William Seaward from Russia at the princely sum of two cents per acre….thus costing in entirety a cool 7.2 million dollars for a land rich in Gold and other abundant natural resources.

One of the most inspiring things to do when visiting this mysterious region is to witness first hand the famous Northern lights or Aurora Borealis

The lights drift in an oval band across parts of Alaska, Canada, Greenland and Siberia. These beautiful displays of natures prowess are actually solar powered and produced in the earth’s upper atmosphere by electrical discharge. The lights can be viewed from midnight to four in the morning and you never quite know the extent that they will be visible as they are sometimes only momentary while at other times they remain “on” all night.

Alaskans refer to much of their wilderness areas as the bush just like the aussies do, down under, in Australia.
