Alaska

Referred to as "The Great Land," Alaska is home to soaring snow-capped mountains, sprawling tundra, and a remote Arctic north – all of which shelter a wide range of wildlife that is otherwise threatened or endangered in the continental United States. Humpback whales, brown bears, lynx, sea otters, sea lions, bald eagles, and blue whales are just some of the vulnerable species protected here; in many parts, caribou and moose outnumber people and the echo of a grizzly’s roar can be heard in the distance. With over 100 state parks to explore, Alaska’s vast, pristine wilderness beckons naturalists who can rejoice in all its splendors, whether it’s cruising through majestic Kenai Fjords National Park, sailing past colossal glaciers in Glacier Bay National Park, glimpsing whale flukes slapping the water, or rafting down the Copper River while bald eagles soar overhead. The ongoing controversial political call to drill for oil in the state’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge has brought even more attention to this beautiful natural resource; visit yourself to see first-hand why environmentalists would prefer to leave it untapped – you’re sure to share their protectionist convictions.
