Life in the Great Land

Have you ever wondered what life in Alaska is really like? Alaskan, as it turns out, is more than living up north.

Living in Alaska encompasses many things…it’s learning a language with words all it’s own, it’s co-existing with moose and bears, and it’s inventing cool things to do in extreme weather, darkness and daylight! And for a back drop is an awe-inspiring environment worth preserving for future generations to enjoy. The following essays are scenes from life in the Great Land.
