Alaska is kind of like a slave colony for the US. We use it to harvest oil and seafood, and sometimes people fly up just to gawk at the ignorant natives~
Truth; I really wish we weren't giving all our natural resources to you stinky Americans. At least we get to eat sea food that isn't poisonous, or at least know better than to buy dirty old fish meat that we only feed to dogs mislabeled as "fresh alaskan salmon."
Ok maybe i'm taking this too far, but how sick would it be to have a hut in the winter to sleep in, then wake up in the morning to the mountain...even more epic.
There is a whole thread over on tgr about this. People posted up some pictures of there huts/huts they stumbled upon, there are some crazy ones out there.
guys, this is really weird. its snowing up here. it has been since around three. lightly, but there is a few inches already and its getting a LITTLE HEAVIER
I don't care; I didn't summit until 3:00 and I got 4th tracks down an otherwise untouched mountain face with a nice cornice drop at the top. Fuck Washington and your trustafarians.
