Alaska

You would head west (to reach the east).

Anchorage's elevation is 102 feet above sea level.

Yes, it makes up a major part of the State's active volcanoes and geographic diversity.

Kodiak before Sitka and Sitka before Juneau.

Dan Sullivan the Mayor of Anchorage.

Terry Strie the Mayor of Fairbanks and

Sean Parnell the Governor of Alaska.

Yes, there are several ice hotels across the world, however I cannot verify the total number. See related link below.

There are quite a few listed on http://www.quirkyaccom.com/ice-hotels

During which season? And in which part(s) of the state? We have densely forested areas in the state's Interior where it gets pretty hot in the summer (90s Fahrenheit) and COLD in the winter (-50 or worse); gorgeously lush rainforests in Southeast Alaska; a temperate area in Southcentral (Anchorage, Homer, Wasilla, Kenai); windy, mountain-ringed beach areas with black sand along the Aleutian Islands.

Alaska is green, blue, brown, and white: trees, grass, tundra, forests, woods, lakes, beaches, cliffs, snow, ocean, mountains, volcanoes..

Yes you can! Personally, I live on the coast of Alaska, and I can see little bits and pieces of Asia.

The lowest recorded temperature in Alaska is minus 80 degrees F.

Alaska is much larger in area than California. Alaska is as large as Texas, California, and Montana combined.

The wet, marine panhandle (Juneau, Ketchikan, Yakutat), The Mat-Su Valley/Chugiak Forest/Ice Fields (Wasilla, Anchorage, Valdez), Kenai Peninsula (Seward, Homer, Portage, Whittier) Northern Tundra (Barrow, Prudhoe Bay), the Frontier (Fairbanks, Nome, McGrath, Nenana, Tok), and the Aleutians (Attu, Adak, Kiska, Dutch Harbor, Unalaska).

William H. Seward, US Secretary of State, negotiated the purchase of Alaska from the Russians for 7.2 million USD in 1867.

Growing up we drove from Eau Claire to Fairbanks two or three times every year. Total DRIVE TIME is about 60 hours. Add on your hotel stays, repairs or visits. The 60 hours does include getting gas, stopping for a quick meal and such.

We usually drove around the clock - not something I'd do again.

Also, this was in the day of 55 mph speed limit and we would go into Canada because the speed limit there used to be higher than the U.S. Driving it today I would go across to Missoula, Montana and then up through Calgary, Edmonton and into Alaska. Probably shave 5 to 10 hours off of the entire trip.

Its not always dark in Alaska. Below I have attached the month and how many hours of light we get during that month. What affects this though, is Alaska's location on the globe. It is tilted tword the sun part of the year and away from the sun the other part.

Jan - 7.0 hours

Feb - 9.1 hours

Mar - 11.8 hours

Apr - 14.7 hours

May - 17.5 hours

June - 19.5 hours

July - 18.5 hours

Aug - 15.8 hours

Sep - 13.0 hours

Oct - 10.1 hours

Nov - 7.2 hours

Dec - 5.5 hours

This does not change over night when the month changes though. It changes a few minutes every night.

--------------------------------------------------------

It should be noted that the amount of daylight/nighttime hours does vary depending on each location's proximity and relativity to the Arctic Circle. Some parts of Alaska, in fact, have a full 24 hours of daylight for up-to 85 consecutive days each year.

Minnesota

Location to big finds. Although little oil and gas exploration has taken place in ANWR, the Coastal Plain is believed to have economically recoverable oil resources. The Coastal Plain lies between two known major discovery areas. About 65 miles to the west of the Coastal Plain, the Prudhoe Bay, Lisburne, Endicott, Milne Point, and Kuparuk oil fields are currently in production. Approximately 1.5 million barrels of oil a day are produced from these fields, representing 25% of our domestic production.

The two widest separated points in Russia are about 8,000 km (5,000 mi) apart.

If you can keep up a pace of 4 km/h it would take you 2,000 hours.

Assuming you walk for 12 hours / day it would take you 166 days; almost half a year.

Who can walk 12 hours a day for 166 days?

Fur, salmon, other animals, oil, gold, silver, tin, copper, other minerals, wood, etc.

depends on what part of Alaska you are in if you are in anchorage then you can take the Alaska Highway to Seattle. I took it from Skagway and the drive is awesome, don't forget to take your camera with you you will run into some wildlife.

Flat, Alaska

It has a population of 4 in the 2000 census.

Its because Hawaii is closer to the semisphere that Austrailia. Hawaii is actually right on the semisphere. P.S. I forgot what semisphere is called so I may have spelled it wrong but Im sure its close.
