Alaska is the largest state in the US, located in the northwest corner of North America. Including thousands of outlying islands, Alaska boasts nearly 34,000 miles (54,720 km) of tidal shoreline.
The landscape is comprised of active volcanos, towering mountains, over 3 million lakes, and endless miles of glacier ice blanketing land and tidal areas. This seemingly isolated state is known for its many geothermal hot springs, plentiful natural resources, abundant wildlife (including some of the world’s largest bears), the spectacular Northern Lights, and America’s tallest mountain, Mount McKinley.
Alaska is the least densely populated state, making it easier to hike trails where no human has ever been before or climb a mountain that has yet to be conquered. Alaska truly feels like a different world, just waiting to be explored.
