been on vacation ... to hawaii!

I would love to drive up there -- from tennessee....... -- j

Any vehicle can make the McCarthy Road in the summer! Subarus are actually well suited for it!

Thanks. We are filming for the next season now.

Welcome - nice to meet you Neil. I'm a big fan of the show.

No need to reveal more, but it appears that you are and have-been the real mover/shaker in getting McCarthy up the ladder. Again, kudos!

Hey, I remember you too! I still put up the occasional WIJG post it note! Hope you get a chance to visit someday!

Thanks Dean, the website does give some idea to the scope of the projects I have been working on in McCarthy.

I've made most states except New England, Hawaii, and Alaska. Doubtful I'll make it to any more

You're in gorgeous country and kudos for your website!

Ha! I knew it was you. :)

We've talked before. You won one of the prizes for the WIJG post-it challenge.

Still hoping to make it up to your neck of the woods some day...

and all I have is a subaru baja. . argh. -- j

Getting there is part of the adventure. Transporter is available. Current models include your choice: plane or helicopter?

when a gulcher invents the transporter, I'll be on the
list to visit next! - the lodge has a very fine score with
trip advisor! -- j

Yes, Wrangell St Elias - surrounded by mountains and glaciers! We are about 400 miles south of the Arctic circle.

our cruise, on NCL, took us to Ketchikan, Juneau,
Skagway -- just a taste of Alaska. . you're 'way up
there in the country! . it is gorgeous, from the little
which I've seen. . how far are you from the arctic
circle? . I have a friend who rode his bike up there
a few years ago -- what an adventure! . I wish that
I could take my Harley on such a run! -- j

p.s. I looked you up -- are you mostly east of
Anchorage, in the middle of the Wrangell-St.Elias
Park?

There are interest facts about the state of Alaska on many sites.

It's a varied landscape over a scale you witnessed very little of, regardless of how much time one spends traveling around Alaska!

I just got my first opportunity to spend a short time in the Tongass rainforest on Prince Of Wales island.

My website is about the work I am doing in my area of Alaska - about 300 miles from Anchorage. I own several tourism related businesses: www.McCarthyLodge.com

I've homesteaded north of Fairbanks years ago along the Chatanika River.

Where did travel in Alaska?

Welcome, Neil, and please tell us more about
your beautiful State when you can! . my wife and
I were there in 09 and fell in love with it. -- john

Hi awebb. I'm in McCarthy, Alaska. It's a ghost town I have been restoring since 2001.

There are about 3 dozen residents who live there year around. We are surrounded by the highest concentration of mountains and glaciers in North America.

Welcome to the Gulch, Neil! Where in Alaska do you reside (if you don't mind my asking)?
