Alaska, with its enormous glaciers and numerous mountains, is a place where one can embrace the extreme. Ice climbing, kayaking through fjords, and hiking through the frozen fantasies of the turbulent taiga and sub-arctic tundra with its resident wildlife wonders like whales, grizzly bears, and wolves are all recommended activities. People may struggle to find the right words because Alaska straddles the line between reality and the fantastic. But their beaming smile says it all. One of the most breathtaking wilderness destinations on earth, Alaska has so much to offer that planning a first visit can be overwhelming. This new book provides all the information you require before scheduling a trip to the largest US state, covering everything from what to pack to the best places to visit, where to stay, and things to do.Full-color, vibrant photos throughout.
