Alaska

yes because its silly up there

i think its just the city of barrow and its surrounding areas. but that 30 days of night sounds freaky and glad im in new york lol

[edit] Actually, the 30 days of night only occur in or around barrow. Southeast Alaska such as Anchorage and the rest of the Kenai Peninsula ( including Fairbanks) do not get the 30 days of night

Juneau is the capital city in Alaska. Juneau became the seat of government for the District of Alaska in 1906 and the state capital city of Alaska on January 3, 1959 when Alaska became the 49th state admitted to the Union.

The town initially went by two names, Rockwell and Harrisburg, until gold miners voted on December 14, 1881 to rename the town after Joe Juneau, one of its founding prospectors.

Alaska's People:

· Alaska's Population was 626,932 in 2000. That's about 1 person for every square mile

· The principal Indian groups in Alaska are the Tsimshian, Haida, and Tlingit tribes and seven small tribes belonging to the Athabsascan language family.

· Most of the Tsimshian Indians live along the Nass and Skeena rivers. The Haidas, located on Prince of Wales Island, and the Tlingits, settled along the coast from Ketchikan to Katalla, are distantly related. Both, particularly the Haida, are noted for their totem-pole carving. Most of the southeastern Indians are fishermen or work in fish canneries. They have generally abandoned their old tribal customs.

· The Eskimos live along the Bering Sea and Arctic Ocean coasts and the lower Yukon River and Kuskokwim River regions.

· Scattered over this harsh and frigid area, Eskimos hunt, fish, trap, and herd reindeer

Alaska is an American State.

Nope, gonna find those further up North.

The American peregrine falcon is one of the best known raptors in North America. Many people are aware of the population declines of this species due to problems with egg-shell thinning caused by persistent organic pollutants such as DDT. Populations of this species were driven to the brink of extinction and the peregrine falcon was federally listed as an endangered species in 1973. Reducing DDT in our environment provided peregrine falcons with a chance to recover and the population in Alaska has grown rapidly from 1980 to the present. The American peregrine falcon was removed from the endangered species list in 1999.

American peregrine falcons were never common in Denali. The extensive alpine regions of Denali do not support high densities of prey favored by peregrines and the lowland areas don't contain many cliffs or rock outcrops for nesting. In 1988, Denali scientists documented the first breeding pair of peregrine falcons in Denali on a granite tor near Chilchukabena Lake. In 1989 these scientists found another pair breeding on a small bluff on the Toklat River and in 2002 they found two more pairs, all on the Toklat River. It appears that peregrines are moving into some of the lowland areas in Denali as their populations grow in interior Alaska.

A big resounding YES! My dad was in the Army stationed in Fairbanks and I started school there and was in the state when it became our 49th (1959). My brother in the 1990's was stationed at Fairbanks while he was in the Army. He had 4 children and all of them attended school for the 4 years they lived there.

Mongolia, Iran, Libya, Sudan, Indonesia, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Greenland, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Algeria, Kazakhstan, Argentina, India, Australia, Brazil, China, United States of America, Canada and Russia are all bigger than Alaska.

No. It is a make belief place from the movie Snow Buddies. It took me a while to take all that in, because they make it sound and look so real. That's what makes great movies! The movie was filmed in British Columbia, at least in part at the Hemlock Valley Resort.

Yukon Territory and British Columbia both have shared border with Alaska.

Yes. I had one.

The distance between the two cities' major airports is about 4,620 air miles.

The Aleutian Islands, part of Alaska, is an archipelago.

It can run from about a month or two up north, to as much as nine or ten months down south. Depends on climate and temp. Usually spring to fall. In the spring Alaska has what we call break up. This is where the ice starts melting and the rivers and creeks start flowing again. Mosquitos are usually out right after that.

The Near Islands and the Islands of Four Mountains are groups of small islands within the Aleutian Islands (the "tail" of the Alaska Peninsula).

The Near Islands are the westernmost in the Aleutian Island chain.
