| | Around Anchorage, Alaska |
 | | Alaska is an extraordinary place and, despite having lived here since 1968, I am still awed by its massiveness and stunning beauty. |
 | | Of course Anchorage is a winter recreation destination for skiers, but there are also many physical activities available during the spring and summer: baseball, basketball, bicycling, boating, climbing, fishing, gold panning, golf, hiking, horseback riding, hunting, ice skating, river rafting, scuba diving, skiing, swimming, and target shooting. |
 | | The native cultures explored are: Athabascan from the interior of Alaska, Yup'ik and Cup'ik from the west coast, Inupiaq and St. Lawrence Island Yupik of the north, Aleuts and Alutiiqs of the north Pacific, and Eyak, Tlingit, Haida and Tsimshian from the southeast. |
