Alaska from Above: Floatplane over Anchorage and Chugach State Park
(open for more info)
We had the chance to take a short ride on a floatplane--another tick on the bucket list--and gained a little perspective (albeit as tourists) on Alaskan bush pilots, who rely upon their planes for survival, whether they're outfitted with wheels, snow skis, or floats. We saw Anchorage from above, gorged ourselves on the views of remote areas of the Chugach mountains, spotting moose and Dall sheep, and appreciated a bird's eye view of low tide and Fire Island and Cook Inlet.

*quoted material
“Aviation touches all aspects of life in Alaska, and is a basic mode of transportation because approximately 90% of Alaska is not served by roads. Alaska has six times as many pilots per capita and 16 times as many aircraft per capita when compared to the rest of the United States. In the state of Alaska, there are fewer than 12,000 miles of paved roads. Aviation is not only the state pastime; it is the state's major form of transportation.”

Anchorage, Alaska Trip Part 1
When my friend Amanda said she wanted to go to Alaska, for her birthday this year, and visit her high school friend, I immediately asked If I could tag along, I mean its ALASKA!!! The final frontier and land of the midnight sun, who wouldn't want to experience that. The only thing that I wished was that we would have gone during the northern lights, but that just gives me more of a reason to go back to this beautiful state.
We arrived at Anchorage, and soon after the following day, our host for this trip, Jessy, Justin and their three kids drove down from Fairbanks to meet us. I instantly fell in love with these kids, all different, strong but above all hilarious personalities. I knew Justin from high school, and had met Jessi before, so it wasn't like I was meeting for the first time.
We decided to stay two nights at an airbnb in Anchorage, and I fell in love with this city. It was such a whole different experience that I will never forget.
This episode we enjoy good food, and drive down to Seward Alaska, for a boat tour, and my goodness it was amazing, the Vessel was called Orca Song, here is the link if you want to book
Also thank you Jessi Lopez for that Orca footage, I think that really made the video.
We also checked out the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, in Chugach State Park, here is the link
There is plenty more to come, and the rest is is even more stunning beauty,
Thanks for watching

Alaska You are amazing
Anchorage, Alaska
Alaska is the largest state in the United States in land area at 570,374 square miles, over twice the size of Texas
Mount McKinley, or Denali The High One is the highest mountain in the United States and North America with an elevation of 20,320 feet.
Anchorage is Alaska's largest city with over 291,000 residents. At 61 degrees north is it slightly more northern than Oslo and Stockholm.
Because of the northern latitude, in the summer the days are very long although the temperatures rarely rise above the 70s. But that doesn't stop Alaska's residents from shedding their parkas for shorts the moment the sun appears.
Oscar Anderson was an early Anchorage resident, said to be the 18th person to set foot on the area and his house, built in 1915 was the first wood-frame house in Anchorage.
The Glacier Brewhouse is both a brewery and one of Anchorage's top restaurants. The place gets busy early so it is a good idea to make reservations. Aside from rotisserie meats the menu features lots of fresh local seafood. And who ever had fresh raspberry whet beer? The brewhouse was brewing it and it was delicious. Alaska glacier bottled water is a great way to taste the purity of the environment around Anchorage. This bottled water is a popular drink for Asians who visit and refer glaciers. Although there were rave reviews about the seafood chowder and the calamari, I tried the pita with hummus which was a great appetizer that went well with the raspberry wheat beer.
One can't be in Alaska without tasting king crab legs. The fresh version is more spectacular than the deep freeze version we get in the lower 48. Alaskan halibut also shines over their southern neighbors and at Glacier Brewhouse they serve it with a healthy balsamic salad and a not so healthy side of fries.
A popular street food are reindeer hot dogs which are actually a blend of pork sausage and reindeer. I didn't taste it but I understand it is a must try, unless you are Santa Claus. There are lots of tourist shops selling made in China souvenirs but if you want something that is truly Alaskan and unique, The Oomingmak Qiviut shop is an Alaskan native cooperative that produces Muskox products.
It is owned by approximately 250 Native Alaskan women from remote coastal villages of Alaska who knit each item by hand. Each village has a signature pattern derived from traditional aspects of village life and the Eskimo culture; they may come from an ancient artifact or a beadwork design.
The name Musk Ox is deceiving, as the animal does not produce musk, nor is it related to cattle. Skeletal and behavioral studies show a closer relationship to sheep and goats Qiviut is shed naturally each year during the spring months.
About 40 miles south of Anchorage is the Alyeska ski resort -- even in May there is abundant snow -- although skiers were not about. It has an average of 643 of annual snowfall and is known for its steep terrain. For off piste skiing - Chugach Powder Guides operate snowcat or helicopter adventure in the world-famous Chugach Mountain Range. Helicopters guarantee 16 - 20,000 vertical feet of skiing per day. The cost $1125 per person. If that price is unbearable ... the normal day ski lift pass is $60 for an adult.
Not far from Alyeska is Portage and the home of the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center. The center takes in injured and orphaned animals and many who cannot be released into the wild are given a permanent home at the center.
Snickers, the porcupine is one such creature that was raised in a home and has a lot of personality .. so much so that a youtube video featuring him with almost 1.8 million views. (youtube.com/watch?v=U5I5H7EeC8k)
The center had recently taken in three orphaned moose calves who keep the four-year old moose Jack company. Jack had arrived at the center as a 3-day old moose with bite marks and a broken leg .. and a 20% chance of survival.
Muskox who's warm fur is used in making Qiviut products are an arctic survivor. Their thick coat grows up to 36 inches long.
The wood bison were extinct from Alaska until they were reintroduced in 2003. They are the largest land animal in North America.
Bears are also residents at the center including brown bears, black bears and a grizzly bear.
Heading south toward the coastal town of Whittier brings one to the Whittier tunnel. This is the longest combined railroad car tunnel in North America and connects the commuters between the Prince William Sound and Turnagain Arm. The tunnel opened in 1943.
Whittier is home to lots of sea life from birds, to sea otters, seals, whales, and sea lions.
In 1964 a 9.2 magnitude earthquake (the largest ever recorded in North America)
generated a major tectonic tsunami. The waves destroyed Girdwood and Portage and evidence of the damage today is still visible from the dead wood forests in the area.

Anchorage Alaska- Big Life Big Alaska-www.anchorage.net/tg
Anchorage Hub of Alaska: Surrounded by some of the most spectacular wilderness in the United States, Anchorage is a first-class destination, with all the amenities you've come to expect in any traditional meeting place.
Anchorage sits at the base of the Chugach Mountains along the coast of Cook Inlet and lies as far west as the Hawaiian Islands and as far north as Helsinki yet it boasts a mild climate. Four mountain ranges, (the Chugach, Alaska, Kenai and Talkeetna) and the warm Japanese Chugach current combine to create pleasant year-round temperatures. Spring through fall, Anchorage's climate is similar to San Francisco's spring weather; winter comparisons usually remind visitors of ski resorts in the Rocky Mountains, Canada or Europe.
The Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport serves as the primary port of entry into Alaska's largest city. With more than 300 flights either originating or terminating here each day, reaching Anchorage via air is both comfortable, convenient and time-efficient.
Visitors venturing to Anchorage can also drive from anywhere on the continent, any time of the year. The Alaska Highway, which links Alaska with Canada and the contiguous United States, is fully paved and offers services all year long. Another option is to take the Alaska Marine Highway to a nearby port such as Whittier, then take the highway or railway to Anchorage from there. See the Alaska Marine Highway section of this guide for more information or go to AlaskaFerry.com.
The parks system within Anchorage showcases some of the most breathtaking scenery in the world. Virtually every aspect of Anchorage's unique past is represented in the historic, cultural or natural themes of these accessible parks.
There are more than 180 miles of groomed trails in Anchorage, many of which are lighted, as well as hundreds of backcountry treks. The grand Chugach State Park embraces the south side of the Anchorage Bowl and offers backcountry access literally minutes from downtown. Kincaid Park is a cross-country skier's delight and one of only two courses certified for international competition in the United States. Hundreds of trails cross through wooded areas abundant with wildlife and vistas of the Alaska Range and Mt. Denali.
Often, flying is the only way to reach backcountry areas that offer an unforgettable experience in the pristine wilderness of Alaska. Flying is so popular in Alaska that 1 in 36 residents have a pilot's license and towns without a stop sign probably have a landing strip. Even the capital city of Juneau can only be accessed by water or plane.
There are many companies offering charter services for just a few hours or longer backcountry trips. From Anchorage, take a flight seeing trip to Denali National Park and circle majestic Mt. McKinley while looking down on fantastic flora and fauna below. A fly-in fishing trip is a popular way to experience an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime Alaskan thrill.
