Ketchikan, Alaska
In addition to being the jumping-off point for seaplane excursions into the Misty Fjords National Monument and its 2.2 million acres of wilderness nirvana, Ketchikan is also the ancestral home of the Tlingit tribe. Another “must-see” here is the world’s largest collection of totem poles. Maybe learn what motivates someone to turn a piece of lumber into a work of art at the Saxman Native Village, Totem Bight or Totem Heritage Center.

Day 5 - August 31, 2010
Skagway, Alaska
It’s doubtful you’ll succumb to gold fever, but if any place on earth can summon up the thrill of prospecting, it’s Skagway. By embracing its goldrush past, Skagway has managed to preserve a frontier spirit complete with saloons and dancehall revues. If the spirit does overtake you, passage on the White Pass & Yukon Railway or a ride on the Klondike Highway will take you to places where you can roll up your sleeves and do some prospecting of your own.
