Fairbanks & Interior Alaska... in video.

Whenever we travel "outside" (which is anywhere other than Alaska) we're constantly asked "Why Alaska?" Most people can't imagine jumping in their car at -50 and going anywhere other than the closest airport to catch a flight to Scottsdale, Tucson, Austin, Daytona or perhaps even Poinciana (I hear there are some good deals to be had).

The truth is while we could live anywhere in the world we choose to make our home in Fairbanks, Alaska because we love the people and the incredible playground that is literally just off our back porch. Want to climb Mt. McKinley? She's a short 4 hour drive away. Feeling up to pulling a 400lb halibut up from the depths of Prince William Sound or defying gravity (& death) to heli-ski off the side of a mountain? We've got that and much, much more. Despite the few cold months, we love calling the Last Frontier home.

Ready to stake your claim to a piece of the Last Frontier? Give us a call, we would love to welcome you to Alaska.

Nice video Jesse. I really like Alaska. I have been there several times. It is a place where men are men and the women are men as well. Met some real tough fems while there. But, I can really understand your love of the natural wonderment and beauty of this final frontier.

Wow, beautiful video. I can see why you love to live in Alaska (although I must say, I couldn't give sunny CA up for the world!) Best of luck in the contest!

Hi Jesse, Well, your movie making is coming right along! A long time ago, my mom and dad flew up to Alaska and cruised back down to Seattle. It was their favorite cruise. I enjoyed your pictures very much.

Michael - There are some tough gals up here, no doubt about that. Then again to survive in this climate you have to be kinda hearty.
Charlie - Good to see you. I'm still trying to get the hang of this video thing. Editing is the hardest part. Selling real estate used to be so simple, huh?
Jason - I'm a natural all right... glad you liked it. I'm going to start a series as soon as I get the editing down.
Candis - Thank you! It probably helps our love of Alaska that we spend a month outside every year. Along about January it's time for us to pack up and head south to thaw out. We missed it this year and I'm feeling it.
Annie & Bob - Thanks for stopping by. You guys did a bang up job on your video... entertaining and most importantly, it was memorable.
Jo - Time to get those rods ready. I tinkered in the shed today checking out the fishing gear. It will be here before you know it.
Roberta - You could always come visit us in mid June through mid July. We generally are in the 80's during the peak of the summer.
Leslie - Did you happen to see the first version? Wow. We've definitely improved. :) The Inside Passage is a outstanding trip... I've been all over the world and don't know of anything that's any more breathtaking.
