National Geographic : 1982 Nov
Contents
Alaska is that rare place from which you never completely return. It is the world as it was thousands of years ago, its shores still scoured by glaciers. It is the caribou, the moose, the whale, the eagle still living in harmony with the Indian and Eskimo and Aleut. Alaska is an out-of-the-way resort tucked among primeval mountains, lakes and fjords. It is a train meandering through flower-clad summer fields. Alaska is the unexpected pleasure of a centuries old Russian Orthodox church rising above a fishing village silhouetted against a fiery summer sunset. But most of all, Alaska is an experience that can only be described by going there and being in it. It doesn't matter whether you go by car, boat or plane, a trip to Alaska will change you in unexpected ways. For me, it was discovering a piece of the world I thought we'd lost a long time ago. A remarkable, exhilarating journey that will stay with me and deeply touch me forever. SK A
