Alaska

That would depend on where in Russia. In northern Siberia it does, just like in southern Alaska it doesn't.

Because of the differing landscapes

No, Fargo is not a state capital.

I believe that it is a tundra based on Rainfall and temperature.

From Homer to Point Barrow is approximately somewhere around 800 miles.

While Alaska does have a northern tip, the main body of the state doesn't exactly have a geographic southern tip. The southernmost part of Alaska is way out west in the Aleutian Islands, Amatignak Island to be specific. The southern tip of that island is about at latitude 51o 13' 08", at 179o longitude, and is over a thousand miles from the southernmost part of the main body of the state. Perhaps the best measurement of the "height" of Alaska would be to measure a straight line directly southward from the northern tip of the state to the point where this line meets the southern coast. This line, starting from the tip at 156o 28' 47" longitude, extending straight south meets the sea at the southern border of Poltava Island, just off the Alaskan coast. This distance is approximately 995.6 miles.

In the pacific region.

Alaska is a state, not a city. If you're asking if the coldest city in the US is in Alaska, then probably, depending on exactly how you define "coldest city". At any given moment, it's possible (if not terribly likely) that the coldest temperature measured in any US city is for a city not in Alaska.

True, Fairbanks on average has 20+ hours of sunlight in June, Miami has roughly 13.5 hours of light.

The approximate driving time and mileage information -

Between: Anchorage, AK

and: Austin, TX

Driving miles: 4125

Driving time: 70 hrs

- is based on traveling non-stop in good driving conditions. Driving time does not take into consideration conditions which may extend travel time such as weather, road work, border crossings, and rush hour traffic in urban areas. Mileage denotes actual road miles covered as opposed to Point A to Point B linear distances on a map.

It is far from Russia's European front door but the back door from Siberia only requires you to cross the Bering Strait to reach the Aleutian Islands of Alaska. The easternmost point of Russia is only 2.4 miles from the westernmost point in Alaska.

This blog has part of the answer - http://argentinaalaska.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html

I met David in Las Cruces On April 1. He and his wife have used 150 days to drive from Buenos Aires to Ushuaia Argentina to Las Cruces New Mexico. Obviously, not straight through. He told me he has traveled about 18,000 miles, but they started in Buenos Aires, drove south to Ushuaia and started from there.

If you read the blog, you will see that they started on November 22, 2007 from Ushuaia. Argentina. That is about 4.5 months to Las Cruces, New Mexico (USA). David believes that in 2.5 months he will be in Fairbanks, Alaska. Google says that it is about 3800 miles. So, I think you can see the do not plan to rush.

Another link of interest is http://www.pacycletest.com/images/routev3.swf

The route is different from David's and the direction goes north to south, they will ride bicycles, and they don't start until June 2008. However, the link shows each leg of the planned trip and the miles.

This link http://www.argentinaalaska.com/eng/recorrido.htm

provides a map of a trip from 2000 to 2003. They wondered around the U.S. so this does not get to the heart of your question. Nevertheless, you get some documentation about the total miles and can cut out the portions that you are not interested in.

To summarize, let's say that you will drive 18,000 miles and average 300 miles a day. In theory, you would have it done in 60 days. But, don't forget to stop and smell the roses.

yes

Yes there is

Farther away from equator, closer to pole, higher latitude.

This is an approximate travel time . The actual travel time may change depending on traffic,weather conditions and the route chosen.

The travel time between the above mentioned places is 3 days, 4 hours, 45 minutes

Approximately 3,700 to drive to the nearest point in Alaska. 3,200 to fly to the nearest point.

The 2010 figure from the US Census was 5,937.

This represented an increase of 31% from the 2000 Census total of 4,533 residents.

Both have open space, a green attitude, mountains, great people, good hunting and fishing, both espouse conservative values and an appreciation for native Americans. Alaska wins on most counts, Colorado wins on roads, emplyment and a year round environment. For the outdoors go to Colorado. For the Big Outdoors Alaska is your choice. Colorado suffers from an abundance or religious zealots, Alaska has bugs in abundance, for bigger fish and Bridges to nowhere select Alaska. Both States suffer serious deficiences. Both contain beauty in abundance, and both are a joy to live in.

1. It has had many including the mushers of the 1925 Great Race of Mercy during the outbreak of diptheria in Nome to those who have served the Nation in its many armed conflicts. One such group of men and women worthy of mention was the Alaska Territorial Guard (sometimes called the Eskimo Scouts) which was a reserve force of the US Army consisting of 6,368 unpaid volunteers in 107 Native communities. These consisted of individuals as young as 12 and as old as 80 and included at least 27 women all of which had qualified as expert riflemen.

   Today another small group that deserves mention are the hundreds of Snow Plow drivers accross the State who are simply doing their jobs. Well Done.

Native Alaskans as we all know are the original natives or indigenous people who have settled in Alaska before the arrival of the Europeans

It is believed that the earliest native inhabitants of what is now Alaska were the Thule people - who spread from there to the east and are believed to be the ancestors of all the Inuit peoples from Alaska to Greenland. They seem to have inhabited the coast of Alaska at least as early as 1000 CE. The Inuit/Inupiat are the descendants of these original inhabitants and are considered Alaska natives.
