Walking in Sitka, Alaska - What to Do on Your Day in Port
This is a quick video of our port call in Sitka, Alaska. The City and Borough of Sitka (Tlingit: Sheetʼká, Russian: Ситка), formerly Novo-Arkhangelsk, or New Archangel under Russian rule, is a unified city-borough on Baranof Island and the south half of Chichagof Island. The Russians settled Old Sitka in 1799, calling it Fort Saint Michael.
In terms of land area, it is the largest city-borough in the U.S., with a land area of 2,870.3 square miles (7,434 square kilometres) and a total area (including water area) of 4,811.4 square miles (12,461 square kilometres).
It rained the whole time we were there. We walked to the Sitka National Historic Park. It has a lot of tall totem poles. We saw several Bald Eagles but not much other wildlife.

Tongass National Forest| Northernmost Rainforest in the World | Love Nature
We filmed this amazing footage in the Tongass National Forest, the largest protected rainforest in the United States and the northernmost rainforest in the world. The forest includes most of Alaska’s panhandle near the top of the earth.
In this short nature documentary, we explore how it’s possible that a rainforest exists this close to the top of the Earth. In a place once covered in ice, not much soil was left behind after the glaciers receded. But trees with a rare ability to pump nitrogen into the ground supply life to the rainforest. Drenched in fog, mist, and rain, precipitation hangs heavy in the air. Alaska’s biodiversity of plant life is living testament to the health of the air, water, and soil in Tongass National Forest.
We float magically through the understory as state-of-the-art dactylcam flies us past rainforest ferns in this gorgeous aerial photography. We take a scenic tour through the ancient old growth forest of the Tongass, where 200-foot trees live over 800 years. See the assortment of life that’s sustained when these mighty trees finally fall to the forest floor. They continue to enrich the rainforest and prompt the cycle of growth to begin again, including species as varied as coastal brown bears, bald eagles, and salmon

RV'ing Alaska's Inside Passage
The adventure begins on beautiful Vancouver Island in British Columbia with a visit to Telegraph Cove, possibly the best place on Earth to view Orca (killer whales). We continue north to Ketchikan, Alaska's first city on the Inside Passage. Here we explore the spectacular Misty Fjords National Monument by kayak and float plane. We also learn about the art of totem pole carving and watch as they are created. A short side trip by ferry takes us to Prince Of Wales Island, which has more than 2,000 miles of logging roads for exploration. The island is also known for its luxury fishing lodges.
Wrangell calls itself Alaska's Hidden Jewel and is paradise for those seeking outdoor adventure! Many say that if you're looking for the real Alaska, you'll find it here. The Anan Bear Observatory is considered to be one of the best in the state and the only place where black and brown bears feed together. We take an exciting jet boat tour up the Stikine River - the last great un-dammed river on the continent - and visit Telegraph Creek as well as the Grand Canyon of the Stikine.
The ferry becomes part of the adventure as we head north through the Wrangell Narrows - the single most difficult navigational stretch on the Passage. Petersburg is Alaska's Little Norway and Southeast's busiest processing port, home to the area's largest fishing fleet. Sitka was once the Russian capital of Alaska and is one of the most beautiful spots on our route. We explore the town's history and native culture. The Alaska Raptor Center offers a close-up at eagles. A wildlife cruise to St. Lazaria Island lets us observe whales, puffins, sea lions and otters. A snorkeling tour reveals Alaska's underwater world.
Juneau is the state capital. The biggest attraction is Mendenhall Glacier, which we explore with an exciting helicopter tour and glacier trek. Some of the best humpback whale watching is within a short boat ride of town. Incredible glacier calving and towering cliffs can be seen at nearby Tracy Arm. Side trips take us to beautiful Glacier Bay and the quirky little town of Pelican.
Our adventure ends with a tour of historic Skagway and more wilderness adventures in Haines, including a river tour, an air boat ride and panning for gold.
Imagine taking a tour of Alaska and bringing your home along for the ride! Join us on our RV adventure and get helpful tips to plan your own. - views before 6/12 - 4,190 - uploaded 9/7/09
