Learning Alaska

Some roads take you somewhere. Others remind you why you came.

I love horses 🐴❤️

They take me back to a time when people felt the distance they traveled and life moved a little slower.

Not easier. Just quieter.

And somehow, a little more connected.

Sometimes feeling Alaska can be as simple as big trees and long coastlines.

The Tonsina Trail in Seward is a reminder that you don’t always need to climb a mountain to experience the beauty of the Last Frontier. 🌲🌊

I watched a tourist right before boarding his shuttle bus turn to his buddy, hold up a soda like it was a freshly caught fish, and pose for a picture.

He laughed and said, “Well… I guess this is my souvenir.”

I understood the joke, but I had to look… $4.49 for a soda is wild.

Small Alaskan businesses need support to stay alive, so if you’re traveling this summer, plan ahead and grab the basics in town. Save your travel budget for the good stuff so you can go home with real Alaskan souvenirs and experiences.

You’ll be happier, and so will the Alaskans you support. 🏔️

Another one for my collection. I love taking photos of Dall sheep, and this one was ready for her close-up. 📸🐏

More eagles. Because it’s Alaska. 🦅

Why does it feel like eagles are everywhere in Wasilla lately? 🦅

It’s actually by design. Bald eagles build their nests close to reliable food sources, and Wasilla has plenty of them. Creeks, lakes, salmon runs, waterfowl, and even open water areas give them access to food nearly year round.

This nest, located just northeast outside Planet Fitness in Wasilla, has been rebuilt after this winter’s powerful wind storms. Eagles often return to the same nesting territory year after year, repairing or completely rebuilding when storms damage the nest.

With nearby creeks for feeding and lakes throughout the Valley, it’s the perfect setup for Alaska’s most iconic bird at an ever more iconic location.
