What are the most Beautiful Landmarks to see in Alaska? -

Have to agree with Glacier on this one.Alaska is Huge and more of an experience then a collection of postcard destinations. http://www.tongass-seis.net/media/tong_U��SO what are you interested in? mountains, wildlife, geology, northern lights, history? And again he is right, are you willing and able to leave the road system and do some roughing it?Best bet might be to start by picking one region you want to explore. This web site has a brief overview of the regions:http://www.travelalaska.com/Regions/Stat��Choose one with the type of geography or activities you most want to see / do. The whole state has parts that are simply breathtaking, so you can t really go wrong.I also like the Milepost for trip planning, it is a must have for any travel on the road system.http://milepost.com/Many tourists want to see Denali (some might know it as McKinley, but the traditional native name that it is better known as here is Denali which translates loosely as the great one ), other popular destinations include glacier cruise in Seward, and riding the Alaska Railroad between Anchorage and Fairbanks. But remember if you stay on the beaten path in summer you will not be alone.Smaller off beat towns can offer a less stressful alternative, although even they feel the added population of summer travelers.Places like Homer, or Manley. And then there are fly in communities that fewer visitors get to see, Nome and Unalaska.

It all depends on what part of Alaska you will be visiting. Please take a look at the National Parks Service website for information of all the landmarks in Alaska. You can follow this link to see a complete list of the landmarks in Alaska:http://www.nps.gov/akso/cr/akrcultural/NHL.htm

The back side of visitors leaving..... LOL.It s not so much to see - it s to experience. Like driving down a road for four hours and not seeing another car - or a piece of trash - for hours.My favorite - Cape St. Elias Lighthouse. Has a 700 foot pinacle dead in front of it that sticks up like the pointed end of a lance from the sand. Only way you can view it is from helicopter or small plane out of Cordova. There are lots and lots of things to see in Alaska. It just matters how sturdy you are and how you plan to get there.

Palin s front porch, you can see russia from there

Mt. McKinley, Barrow, Nome and Murphy Dome
