Travel from cache to cache spreading facts about Alaska all over the world. My signature pathtag is attached to the TB.
In 2014, Alaska just celebrated its 55th year of statehood, 3 January 1959.
Major industries include mining, fishing, forestry, aerospace and tourism.
The origin of its name is a Russian version of an Aleutian Indian name, Alakshax, meaning peninsula. Wikipedia has it listed as alaxsxaq meaning "the mainland". Alyeska is another name meaning "great land".
Alaska covers 656,425 square miles. If the state was split into two halves, Texas would become the 3rd largest state. Texas covers only 268,820 square miles.
The population of Alaska is 731,000 with most of the people living along the coast. Anchorage is the most populous city with 260,000 people. Fairbanks is a distant 2nd with 31,500. The capital city of Juneau also has around 31,000 people.
There are a lot of geocaches in this great state. If you drive from Fairbanks to Anchorage and want to cache along the way, what normally takes 6 1/2 hours might turn into a couple of days!
