The Exxon Valdez disaster

There are no mountains taller than Mt. Everest. Everest is the world's tallest mountain, measuring 29,028 ft.

Mt. McKinley (also known as Denali) is the highest mountain in Alaska, and is also the highest mountain in the U.S., but it still is not as high as Everest, measuring 20,320 ft.

As long as your fire (or other method of heating the food) is hot enough, yes. It isn't much harder to cook in Alaska than anywhere else.

Some crops grown in Alaska are hay, potatoes, lettuce, carrots, and cabbage. In an additional note, they grow 140 pound cabbages because of the sun in Alaska!

No. Moscow to New York City is approx. 4662 miles and Moscow to Alaska is approx. 3956 miles.

It isn't about the sea but what lays beneath it. Offshore oil reserves and plenty of it will make the best of neighbors squabble about where the proper fence line should be placed. They will work it out with time.

Maine and Hawaii

A US visa is valid for Alaska. Considering Alaska is a part of the USA, it is legal. I went to Alaska recently and they accepted my Visa. Hope this Helps!

Cars, trucks, vans, bicycles, motorcycles--just like in any other city. In small towns and villages sleds and four-wheel ATVs are often used.

Do not forget many just walk.

The air distance from St. John's, Newfoundland, to Kodiak, Alaska, is 3,859 miles. That equals 6,211 kilometers or 3,353 nautical miles.

Although Alaska's growing season is short, their crops tend to mature quickly mainly because of the increased daylight hours during the summer. In most of the state the sky never gets completely dark during the summer, and even in the "farm belt" of Alaska around Palmer, the sun sets around midnight and rises again around 3:00 a.m. More daylight equals more plant photosynthesis.

Anchorage

Some parts of Alaska are barren tundra. For the most part Western and Northern Alaska are barren. Central and Eastern Alaska is filled with mountain ranges and hills. Southeast Alaska has rainforests. The Aleaution Chain is barren as well, with some forested and volcanic areas.

The actual Over The Air broadcast channel is 12.1 for ABC and 12.2 for CW in Anchorage. Both are being broadcast from the KYUR transmitter on the same carrier, an advantage of digital broadcasts. Actual channel 13 is a translator channel frequency used in Homer, AK. for KAYU. Info available from the FCC website.

Canada shares a border with Alaska. In some ways it could be said that Russia also borders Alaska. There are two small islands in the Bering Straight between Alaska and Russia that are only about a mile apart. The name of these islands is Big Diomede and Little Diomede Islands. One of the islands is part of Alaska and belongs to the U.S., the other is part of Siberia and belongs to Russia. At times there is ice connecting the islands and it is possible to walk from one island to the other, thus crossing a border shared and between the U.S. and Russia.

The name Sitka does not exactly have a meaning. The word Sitka is the name of a town in southeastern Alaska that was the capital of Russian America. Some of the Inuits use this name for their children, but it does not have a distinct meaning.
