To The Lover of Wilderness, Alaska is one of the most beautiful places in the world. -John Miur

Alaska is a U.S. state on the northwest extremity of the country's West Coast, just across the Bering Strait from Asia and Russia. Alaska is by far the largest U.S. state by area, comprising more total area than the next three largest states Texas, California, and Montana combined, but also the most sparsely populated state. Notable for breathtaking landscapes, it contains nearly 3 million lakes and is the Coldest state in the U.S.
