  • Winter in Alaska
    While most visitors are familiar with Alaska’s summer landscapes, there’s no getting around the fact that the snow-covered version of our surroundings is with us longer. Fortunately, Alaskans don’t just make peace with winter – we celebrate it! Many visitors would be surprised to discover that our winter temperatures are comparable to many places in the Continental U.S. Alaska boasts near-limitless winter adventure options, with activities ranging from dog mushing, skiing and winter festivals galore. So why not come up and experience Alaska the way the locals do – on skis, under the northern lights, soaking in an outdoor hot spring or racing down a snowy trail behind a team of sled dogs. Northern Lights The aurora borealis, also known as northern lights, occur about 60 or 70 miles above the earth’s surface —about 10 times higher than a jet aircraft flies — and can extend hundreds of miles into space. The most common color displayed is a brilliant yellow- green, but the aurora borealis can also produce red, blue and purple patterns. When to view The northern lights are best viewed during the winter and often spotted as early as August. The aurora is most active around the autumn and spring equinoxes, September/October and March/April, and are most likely to be seen late at night or in the early morning hours. Fortunately, many Alaska hotels offer a northern lights wake-up call to alert visitors when the lights are out. Best conditions Ideal conditions for aurora viewing involve clear, moonless skies, but with clearer skies come sub-zero temperatures — so be sure to dress warm.

It was the very beginning of ski season, but the streets were bustling like mid-winter. Even without the snow, there was vibrating energy and joy. I’d resigned to go to bed hungry when I stumbled upon a gyro stand. “What are you guys doing open this time of night, so early in the season?” I asked, delighted. “Dude, we’re killing it,” said the gyro man, a bearded, long-haired, typical ski-town type. He was young, and fired up—almost alarmingly so. I placed my order. Behind me was a group. “Lots of jalapenos!” they yelled. As is the case in all ski towns, the gyro man knew one of them. “You got it! And dude: I want to sincerely thank you for opening Artisan. That duck poutine.

  • The Endangered Beluga Whales of Cook Inlet, Alaska
    RESEARCH FEATURE The Endangered Beluga Whales of Cook Inlet, Alaska by Kim Shelden Beluga whales (Delphinapterus /eucas) reside year-round in the waters of Cook Inlet, Alaska, where they are accessible to residents and visitors of the state's largest city, Anchorage, home to 42% of the state's population. Concern about the high level of human-caused mortality on this small population of whales prompted the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) to designate Cook Inlet beluga whales as depleted under the U.S. Marine Mammal Protection Act in 1999. With an estimated decline of nearly 50% between 1994 and 1998, the Cook Inlet population has remained between 300 and 400 animals since 1999. The failure of the population to recover led to an endangered listing under the U.S. Endangered Species Act in October 2008. As of June 2010, the population still only numbered about 340 beluga whales. Biology and Distribution Beluga whales and narwhals (Monodon monoceros) are the only living species in the family Monodontidae. Thecommon name beluga is derived from the Russian word for white, belukha; the species name leucas also means white and refers to the skin color of adult whales. Beluga calves are dark brown or blue-gray. As they age, their skin turns progressively whiter, becom­ ing pure white by about age 9, though some females may retain some gray coloration up to 21 years. The lifespan of these whales may exceed 60 years (based on counts of layers deposited in beluga teeth). The physical and behavioral characteristics described here vary among beluga populations but in general pro­ vide a good overall description ofthe species.

    ABSTRACT Title of Document: LANDSCAPES AND TRADITIONS OF MARATHONING IN THE USA, 2000-2008 Krista Marie Park, Doctor of Philosophy, and 2012 Directed By: Professor Nancy L. Struna, Department of American Studies This dissertation concludes that the symbiotic relationship between two competing cultural traditions of marathoning, Corrival and Pageant, simultaneous creates and eliminates barriers to marathoning participation. Using John Caughey’s strategies for studying cultural traditions and Pierre Bourdieu’s concept of capital to differentiate between and describe two different approaches to training for and participating in marathons among runners in the Baltimore-Washington Metropolitan Area (BWMA). Drawing on participant observation, interviews of runners in the BWMA, and an exploration of the geography of running in the BWMA, contextualized by discourse analysis of three prominent marathon training guides and the covers of the two most influential running magazines, this dissertation also explores the strategies individuals’ use to overcome actual and potential obstacles to marathon participation, such as parenting or restrictive work schedules.

Who better knows that we need the wilderness to bring people closer to their original nature, that we need a place to be alone, where nature can bring us its good tidings. But we outdoor people know full well that we also need, for survival, the raw materials found in nature. Our backpacks of aluminum, our pitons of steel. We need synthetic fabrics and insulation- the products of petroleum. Even as we stand alone on some outcrop of rock looking at a landscape few may have ever seen, we know we are very much a part of the world of men and women, of industry and energy, of expanding demands on the fragile environment of the plant… There must be a balance.
