Meet the Great Horned Owl. It's roughly around 18-25" long. It has overbearing ear tufts that are responsible for its "horned" appearance. Its large stature and white throat, or "bib," separate the Great Horned Owl from others.

It is Alaska's only large owl with ear tufts. The backside of this type of owl has various shades of brown and gray, spotted with white and buff while the underside is white, barred with dark brown or black, and tinted with buff. On the other hand, the facial disk is reddish, and the eyes are a deep yellow. In-flight, these owls are recognized by their large heads, very short necks, and whitethroats.

In 1909, Huskies made an American debut in the second year of the All Alaska Sweepstakes Race. It was rumored that these canines were considered superior sled dogs. It turns out the gossip was true as they dominated racing competitions in Alaska over the following decade. In 1925, there was a widespread disease called diphtheria. The nearest antitoxin was 1,000 miles away in Anchorage. Twenty mushers and their sled dogs courageously took to the bitter cold to get the medicine there safely. You may remember this story from the animated movie Balto. You can view a statue of Balto in New York's Central Park.

Alaska is America's 49th state and undeniably one of the country's top places to visit, especially for nature's admirers. People come from all over to explore miles upon miles of lavish landscapes filled with forests, lakes, mountains, and North America's tallest peak, Denali.

A better way to see what Alaska has to offer is by visiting the national parks. To sum up, 24 sites in Alaska are connected with the National Park Service in some way, but only eight of those are considered national parks. National parks are described as areas of land delegated by the United States for preservation and conservation.

Whale watching in Alaska sure is fun and exciting, not to mention accessible too. It's only a day cruise away so you can surely find orcas, humpbacks, grays, or beluga whales.

Orcas live in the waters surrounding coastal Alaska, including outside Seward, near Kodiak, in Whittier's Prince William Sound, in Glacier Bay, Icy Strait, and Alaska's Inside Passage. Come spring, gray whales migrate through Alaska's waterways on their way to their summer feeding grounds in the Bering and Chukchi Seas in the Arctic Ocean. Spot some belugas outside Anchorage in the Turnagain Arm, and humpbacks are easy to see outside of Juneau.

Totem poles are a cultural part of many indigenous people of Alaska, the Pacific Northwest, and British Columbia. Totem poles are sculptures carved typically from Western Red Cedar or other large trees.

The figures on the poles are not like gods to be worshipped. The totem poles represent the traits and characteristics of each clan or story personifies. The figures found on these poles include the raven (a symbol of the Creator), the killer whale (a symbol of strength), the eagle (representing peace and friendship), the Thunderbird, the bear, the wolf, the beaver, and the frog.

It's interesting to note that totem poles are still created today, even though it's been part of history for many decades. I’d love to help you plan your trip, so be sure to pick up the phone and call me or send me an email when you’re ready to start planning.

Alaska is indeed heaven on earth. However you perceive your paradise, for an outdoor enthusiast, Alaska will top your list.

Sixty-five thousand miles of rivers to float. Thirty-nine mountain ranges to climb. Wide expanses of open tundra, thousands of square miles of taiga, populated with an incomparable diversity of aquatic and terrestrial species. Mesmerizing islands covered with ancient spruce forests and surrounded with clear, cold waters brimming with salmon, halibut, rockfish, and marine mammals. The possibilities in Alaska are almost endless.

Fun facts about Iditarod:

1. Sled Dogs need 10-12,000 calories a day.
And these canines need to keep eating. Along the trail, they are given frozen snacks to eat on like chunks of meat, fish, or wet dog food.
2. The dogs wear booties.
Dog fur and an able circulatory system keep them warm, but their footpads need protection from the ice, snow, and rocky terrain.
3. Sled dogs have to study their vocabulary.
It’s a must in sled dog training to teach them a set of basic commands.
