Alaska, September 7 - 10, 2004 

I went to Alaska on a quick business trip, but had time to catch a few sights.  Ate lots of salmon and halibut, but didn't see any bears.  My return flight from Fairbanks was a killer: departed (as scheduled) @ 2:35am on Friday, arrived in Seattle 6:30am PT, flight to DC lifted off @ 9:00am, arrived Reagan National 4:30pm Friday.  Long day!

Cook Inlet: As in Captain Cook.  Approximately 20 miles southeast of Anchorage.  I took these my first afternoon in Alaska.  Temperature was 62°...beautiful!


Snow Blower Train: on display at a scenic turnoff along Cook Inlet.


Alaska Pipeline: Another beautiful day, about 10-15 miles outside of Fairbanks. Read the emergency indicators!


Alaska Route 1: About 10 miles west of Fairbanks.  Autumn in Alaska.
