Adventure Guide to the Inside Passage & Coastal Alaska
Adventure Guide to the Inside Passage & Coastal Alaska
The focus of this book is the Alaska Marine Highway, which serves as a lifeline for many coastal communites in Alaska. This ferry system – a total of nine boats – links tiny coastal communites and large cities alike. It runs from Washington, up the Inside Passage, all the way to the Aleutians in the far north, a total of 3,500 miles. The Adventure Guide to The Inside Passage & Coastal Alaska follows this route, telling you everything you need to know about the ships themselves, the sights and the towns. Tours on land – flightseeing, kayaking, canoeing, boating – are covered. The book is targeted at anyone traveling in this region, not just those taking the ferry, and has full information on what to see and do in each town, where to stay and eat and how to get out of town. Extensive details about wildlife, including the best places to see some, and how to be an eco-conscious traveler.

Catching the Alaska Ferry to Ketchikan — Ketchikan, AK –
comment removed by Administrator] A car with people huddled together in the snow.I coaxed the 48 ft. trailer up the hill almost to the top where I pulled off to the side and pulled the button for the air brakes to hold the truck.I grabbed my wool blanket which I had “commandeered” from a previous journey to Alaska on the ferry from Seattle,Wa.Yelled at my partner to let him know what was happening and headed to the people.An old woman seemed to be the only one of four who was hurt.The young male teen said she complained of a sore back.I gave her the blanket and enquired if anyone had gone for help.Yes there was an ambulance on the way.Having assured myself There was nothing more I could do I went back the truck.My driver wasn't real happy.The truck wouldn't pull the grade to crest the hill.Damn!We radioed via cb for a tow and eventually made our delivery,our return pickup of salad (slang) for produce and arrived back home eight days later.The owner wasn't real happy with me,but I assured them that had it been they lying inthe snow at the bottom of that hill,I would have done the same.They did not reply.ps I drove for themfor two more months and found A driving job near my home.I had a friend with skin cancer.The docs gave him three months and wanted to radiate and chemo and cut.He was a smart fellow though and challenged authority.,I suspect that's why he was let go from his job as dean of student at a catholic high school.Later to be black balled from any teaching job in the state!Anyhow he made contact with a local herbologist who gave him some salve to rub on his arm where the cancer was .He told me he did this and proyed a lot and damned if it didn't clear!Well now the docs were all atwitter as to how this could be so they called him in and tried to catch him in legal lie or something similar.He was to smart to admit tothem that anything other than ama sanctioned medicine is the only way to heal in some cases.He later gave me his canoe after having a pacemaker installed and six months later he died from a heart attack while dining with friends at McDonalds.He was 76yrs and my mentor in many ways.If I were the praying type,I'd say one for you,I'm closer to the Indian way and see the truth in nature and the universal truths,so I say to you though it be cold now, there will be a warm wind coming soon. good luck to you.
