Visit the Anchorage Museum and View Life In the Arctic

New Post has been published on https://www.usatelegraph.com/2018/visit-anchorage-museum-view-life-arctic/

Visit the Anchorage Museum and View Life In the Arctic

Guests to Alaska’s largest city often visit the Anchorage Museum at Rasmuson Center, located on C Street in the downtown core. The museum is the largest such facility in Alaska and one of the top 10 most-visited attractions in the state. With a mission to “connect people, expand perspectives, and encourage global dialogue about the North and its distinct environment,” the Anchorage Museum offers a variety of permanent and traveling exhibits that appeal to a wide range of ages.

Of particular interest to many visitors are details surrounding Arctic regions of the Circumpolar North, in particular, Alaska. Places like Shishmaref, Nome, Barrow, Point Hope. Animals live here, like caribou, foxes, whales, and polar bears, a species particularly threatened by changes in Arctic sea ice.

The exhibit “View From Up Here; The Arctic at the Center of the World” strives to explain, connect, and inspire anyone, resident or visitor, with what has happened in the Arctic, and what is happening now.

The Anchorage Museum is hosting this international contemporary exhibition to highlight investigations into the intricacies of space, people, and place through a variety of media. Film, photographs, sculpture, and installations that are guaranteed to put questions in your mind and feelings in your heart are on display. A few exhibits are even outdoors, like the Food Forest, a sculpture with edible plants that will be eventually harvested later in the summer.

Arctic regions are not as remote as they might seem visually. Touched by human progress and infrastructure that comes in the form of oil production, military presence, and other forms of resource development, the Arctic and its people and animals are in an interesting state of flux. The exhibits are haunting reminders of the change that is already in progress, and questions are asked about how, and if, humanity should intervene.

The Polar Lab looks deeper at the Arctic; today, yesterday, and tomorrow, and pairs well with the Alaska Native Cultures exhibit, an interactive walk through the unique tribes featured in the Arctic Studies Center. On a long-term loan from the Smithsonian Institution, guests can see clothing, tools, and regions occupied by these individuals for centuries.

Other Museum Highlights

On the museum’s second floor, visitors should make sure to see the Alaska Gallery, a 15,000 square-foot space dedicated to presenting history and ethnology of Alaska’s different lifestyles and cultures. Walking between the past and future, guests will get to know major events that shaped the Alaska of today.

Young people visiting the Anchorage Museum will not want to miss the popular Imaginarium Discovery Center, an 80-exhibit space for children of any age. Traveling with an infant or toddler? Play trains or allow babies to wiggle on the soft floor spaces just for them. Interested in physics or space? The air cannon and heat monitor are always a hit. Don’t miss the volcano and earthquake exhibits, either, as both are integral to the formation of and life in Alaska. The Imaginarium staff is well-equipped to explain each exhibit and ask the important questions to encourage kids to think outside the box of school-year learning. 

Regular “Discovery Talks” are scheduled throughout the week, and summer brings day camp opportunities to further enrich the lives of future scientists.

Especially after viewing exhibits showcasing change in Alaska, it is important to develop a sense of what Alaska has been since humans first inhabited its vast landscape thousands of years prior. Allow at least two hours to fully explore the museum, more if you’d like to receive a docent tour, visit the gift shop for excellent representations of Alaska Native art, or have a meal in the Muse, the museum’s on-site restaurant.

A number of special events are scheduled year-round at the Anchorage Museum, with First Friday, artist talks and children’s activities among the most popular.

GoTip: Pair up your Alaska Museum visit with a companion visit to the Alaska Native Heritage Center with a Culture Pass.

With free transportation to either facility provided, it’s an excellent way to see both attractions.

Celebrate Winter in Style at Anchorage's Fur Rendezvous

New Post has been published on https://www.usatelegraph.com/2018/celebrate-winter-style-anchorages-fur-rendezvous/

Celebrate Winter in Style at Anchorage's Fur Rendezvous

Historically, winter in Anchorage, Alaska has a tendency to be long, dark, and rather cold. Combine that with a feeling of isolation thanks to a northerly position on the globe, and residents of Alaska’s largest city could have the potential for a bit of Seasonal Affective Disorder. So, in 1935, they decided to throw a party.

Fur Rendezvous, or Fur Rondy, has been a figure of Anchorage winter life since those early days, paying homage to both the season and the fur traders for whom the festival is named.

Originally formed as a way to welcome trappers to town with their winter catch of furs and blow off a bit of community steam as the calendar marched toward spring, Fur Rondy’s original events consisted of a baseball game, boys’ sled dog race, and big bonfire along downtown’s Park Strip. Today’s festival has grown much larger to accommodate both a burgeoning Anchorage population of just over 300,000 and to support the broad range of events with definite “Alaskan flair.”

Held the last weekend of February, Fur Rendezvous provides a revved-up enthusiasm for increasing daylight and the start of the Iditarod Sled Dog Race the first Saturday in March, just as the festival is winding down. Then, hordes of people flock to downtown Anchorage’s 4th Avenue to watch teams depart for Nome and combine their day with Fur Rondy’s carnival atmosphere. In 2018, the dates are February 23 to March 4.

Billed as one of the 10 best winter carnivals in the world, Fur Rendezvous is more than an opportunity to ride a Ferris wheel in parka and snow boots; it’s a chance to experience Alaska spirit, hospitality, and culture.

Before You Go

First, take these tips into consideration for maximizing your Fur Rendezvous experience:

Visit Anchorage is the local tourism bureau, offering ideas for dining, lodging, and ancillary activities before, during, and after the Fur Rendezvous festival.

If you can, stay in downtown Anchorage. Try ​Anchorage Grand Hotel, Copper Whale Inn, or the Hotel Captain Cook for easy access to all Fur Rendezvous events.

Dress appropriately for outdoor activity. Some events require standing around in the chilly Alaska weather. Boots, gloves, hats with ear cover, and chemical hand-warming packs are all good ideas.

Take time to review the ​Fur Rendezvous website and plan your stay according to the events most appealing to you, taking note that the Ceremonial Start of the Iditarod begins the first Saturday in March.

Plan to explore other sites around Anchorage offering special festival-themed events, including the Alaska Zoo and Alaska Native Heritage Center.

Fur Rendezvous “Best Bets”

The Fur Rondy Carnival operates all week during the festival. With traditional rides like the Ferris wheel, Gravitron, and sweet treats to tempt visitors, it’s a popular place to be during the week. Amaze your friends with photos from the top of a ride in the middle of winter!

Frostbite Footrace and Grand Parade participants begin lining up early on the first Saturday of Fur Rendezvous, ready to run the streets of town dressed in costume. The parade immediately follows the race, with Fur Rondy “Royalty” and a host of prominent figures in Alaska life.

Outhouse races begin that same afternoon, with teams of four constructing their own portable potty on runners, ready to give one lucky participant a ride down 4th Avenue with the hope of winning a prize for most creative, quick, or even slowest.

Sled dog fans will thrill at the World Championship Dog Sled Races, taking place the entire first weekend of Fur Rendezvous. Unlike the “marathon” dogs of Iditarod, sprint mushing is the name of the game here, with teams running up to 20 MPH in pursuit of each other and a cash prize.

Perhaps no other race could incite such hilarity as the annual Running With the Reindeer dash along 4th Avenue on the final Saturday of Fur Rondy. Modeled after the famous Running of the Bulls in Spain, the Fur Rendezvous version is much tamer, with house-reared reindeer trotting along the street with the promise of a treat at the other end. GoTip: visitors are welcome to race, but should sign up well in advance of arrival via the Fur Rondy website.

The Rondy Melodrama is a one-act play designed to showcase the history and humor of Alaska’s Last Frontier, with costumes and popcorn to boot. Running the week of Fur Rendezvous and into mid-March, the show features matinees, family nights, and evening shows to accommodate all-comers.

Sculptures made from snow are constructed by local teams down on Anchorage’s Ship Creek and hopefully will remain frozen solid during the entire week of Fur Rondy.

The annual Native Arts Market is held at a local shopping mall and is an excellent venue to secure one-of-a-kind crafts by Alaska Native artisans. This event is held the first full week of March and is not to be missed by anyone seeking truly authentic representations of Alaska Native art and world-class craftwork.

Small vs Large - Which Alaska Cruise Ship is For You?

New Post has been published on https://www.usatelegraph.com/2018/small-vs-large-alaska-cruise-ship/

Small vs Large - Which Alaska Cruise Ship is For You?

Are you one of the million people who cruised Alaska last year? If so, did you sail on an enormous ship with multiple decks and endless on-and-off-board activities, or on a smaller vessel upon which you knew everyone on board? Or, perhaps, you couldn’t yet decide and are looking toward this year.

Cruising represents at least half of the total Alaska visitor population, and as an industry is growing among the Southeast region’s Inside Passage port cities.

Ships sail from late April through September, offering visitors seasonal opportunities for viewing Alaska’s stunning scenery, abundant wildlife, and culturally-relevant activities, all within the scope of efficient organization.

Obviously, size matters when considering a cruise in any location, but it can be even more important in Alaska, where recreational activities and destinations can or cannot be reached by some vessels. Therefore, careful consideration to your own abilities and travel desires, coupled with the length of time you plan to spend in Alaska is highly recommended.

For the purposes of discussion, below is a breakdown of the industry’s deliniation for large vs small ships.

Large ships: 2,000-4,000 passengers

Middle ships: 1,000-2,000 passengers

Small ships: Under 1,000 passengers

Note: Alaska also has a growing number of very small cruise ships, billeting under 500 passengers, and it is these ships to which I shall refer in the information below.

Ask yourself these questions:

1. How do I like to travel in general? 

If you are the type of vacationer who enjoys a full-service style of travel, then a larger ship, with scheduled activities, more formal dining, and larger-group tours may appeal to you. From room service to  nightly dance parties, larger ships have a broader offering of services, and many passengers appreciate this aspect, especially when traveling with larger family groups of many generations. 

GoTip: Even larger ships have different styles of cruising, so do your homework and investigate the different options for activities, dining, and onboard life.

2. Is travel for relaxation or exploration? 

Would you rather curl up with a book in a window seat and watch the scenery go by, or jump in a kayak and paddle along a rocky cove? Smaller cruise lines, while still providing many opportunities for taking a break, do operate with a more adventurous traveler in mind. Hiking, kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding; the list goes on of active adventures aboard a small cruise ship. GoTip: Smaller ships typically send passengers out for activities rain or shine, so knowing the expectation for adventure is important.

3. How long will I be in Alaska? 

If your trip to the Last Frontier involves land travel, especially land travel to more remote sections of the state, you might enjoy a larger ship’s elements of convenience and luxury before or after a land-based few days in an RV or backcountry lodge. If, however, you feel a sense of adventure and have a shorter length of stay, a smaller ship, with the ability to nose into secluded nooks and bays of Southeast Alaska, might be just the thing you need for checking Alaska off your bucket list. 

GoTip: Many smaller cruise lines also offer intimate land tours that integrate many aspects of their areas of focus on culture, history, and wildlife.

4. What is my level of ability? 

Smaller ships generally stretch in length between 70 and 500 feet in length, depending upon the vessel, and thus, do not have the capacity for some accessibility aids like roll-in showers, elevators, and the like. Thus, individuals with mobility issues may find a larger ship accommodates difficulties like standing, walking, lifting up feet (as smaller ships also have watertight doors and inches-high metal seals around passageways). Also important to note: Parents of infants and toddlers will not find services like childcare or many spaces to allow crawling or newly-walking children room to explore, due to size constraints.

5. What can I afford? 

In general, the smaller the cruise line, the more expensive the experience. Sometimes referred to as “boutique cruises,” small cruise ships or yachts provide the utmost in personal attention, service, and gourmet dining. That said, some cruise lines also cater to independent-minded, adventure-seeking passengers who don’t want anything to do with formal meals or fine wines, and yet are willing to pay premium prices for the solitude and access to wilderness a more remote cruise provides. GoTip: On a budget? Sail early or late in the season for the best deals.

5 Reasons to Cruise Alaska Early in the Season

New Post has been published on https://www.usatelegraph.com/2018/5-reasons-cruise-alaska-early-season/

5 Reasons to Cruise Alaska Early in the Season

Arguably one of the most popular cruise destinations on the planet, Alaska’s glaciers, wildlife, and scenic waterways draw a million people each year to port cities from Ketchikan to Anchorage. Operating within a small window between late April and September, demand is high for Alaska cruises, particularly those offering programs to explore the historical and cultural aspects of the 49th state.

With both large and small ships available for passengers eager to experience Alaska’s vast landscape, making careful financial and calendar-based decisions about booking dates is critical, especially for those travelers wanting to try as many activities as they can, in as many places as possible. 

One viable option is an early-season Alaska cruise, beating both crowds and high prices for the sake of authentic Last Frontier adventures.

GoTip: Alaska cruisers should be aware of several sacrifices they may have to make for the sake of early-season trips. Some airlines offering seasonal service to and from Alaska may not yet be in operation, so ticket prices may be higher since the summertime competition hasn’t arrived yet. Additionally, while most major tour operators are open for business, some smaller companies are still underway, so check carefully dates of your arrival and departure, particularly in the category of land-based travel.

Still think spring is the best time to cruise Alaska (and many people do)? Here’s what you’ll get.

1. Better prices. Cruise lines want to fill up ships since they’re sailing anyway up the Inside Passage, and you can get a great deal on cabins, often with a verandah upgrade, all the better to view those glaciers and whales.

Some companies also offer valuable onboard credit, up to $200 or more, a valuable commodity for sea days. Land tours also can be bundled into many cruises, taking away the hassle of arranging your own transportation once you reach your disembarkation point and want to see more of the Great Land. Some cruise lines, like small UnCruise Adventures based in Seattle, offers credit for passengers embarking upon their inaugural sailing from Fisherman’s Terminal each spring, sailing to Juneau as early as mid-April. 

This 12-day cruise wanders along Washington’s San Juan Islands before ducking into the famous Inside Passage, and is an excellent introduction to the beautiful rainforests of the Pacific Northwest.

2. Fewer crowds. Alaska port cities, particularly Ketchikan and Juneau, are positively choked with people in the high-season months of June through August. Visiting in late April or early May provides a breath of fresh air for those wanting to walk down the local sidewalks without bumping into people right and left. Popular attractions and sights like Mendenhall Glacier or whale-watching cruises will be less crowded as well, leaving you more space to ogle at these wonders of nature. Most families hesitate to travel before the final days of school, so if cruising with kids is not your preferred way to see Alaska, early in the season is probably the best.

3. Cheaper land stays and plays. Planning to explore independently before or after your cruise? Early-season deals around Alaska abound, covering everything from Alaska Railroad tickets to overnight accommodations at many hotels and lodges. An exellent purchase before your trip is the Alaska TourSaver book, a coupon booklet filled with 2-for-1 deals across the state. 

Possibilities are endless, and all one needs is a sense of adventure and an open calendar.

4. Unique weather. Spring in Alaska is known affectionately (or not) as the “bipolar season,” when brilliant sunshine, falling rain, or blowing snow (and sometimes all three) make for an interesting adventure. When travelers pack appropriately and come prepared for any weather at any time, this Alaska characteristic can be one of the best parts about a trip. Mountains are snow-capped, glaciers are sparkling, and icebergs bob upon the water. On land, skiing is still possible in some locations to the north, and the occasional snow shower provides visitors with something to talk about upon returning home.

5. Active wildlife. Come April, Alaska’s animals are beginning to shake off a long winter by stretching their legs and feeding on the new growth beginning to pop up around the state, especially in Southeast Alaska, where temperatures are generally more moderate.

Look for black and brown bears on grassy hillsides and beaches; moose browsing along willow groves; eagles swooping along shorelines; and gray, humpback, and orca whales feeding on herring, krill, and salmon.

Lakefront Anchorage Is Convenient, Stylish, and Part of History

New Post has been published on https://www.usatelegraph.com/2018/lakefront-anchorage-convenient-stylish-part-history/

Lakefront Anchorage Is Convenient, Stylish, and Part of History

As anyone in real estate knows, one major factor for setting up a successful storefront business model is location, location, location. With respect to hotel properties, this may be even more important, as rooms with scenic vistas or interesting sights go a long way toward guest satisfaction.

Such is the case with The Lakefront Anchorage, a 248-room hotel with a location so uniquely Alaskan, it’s no wonder the property never has to worry about which room has a better view; they’re all good. 

Opened in 1986 under the name Regal Alaskan, the Lakefront also underwent a name change in 2001 with a purchase by Millennium Hotels and Resorts. Then known as the Millennium Alaskan Hotel, it became a popular place for Alaska’s visitors and business travelers to rest their heads after a busy day of work or play.

Located one mile from Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport, four miles from downtown Anchorage, and steps from the shores of Lake Spenard and adjoining Lake Hood, The Lakefront lives up to its most recent name. Renovated top to bottom in 2015, the property’s new presence shines as bright as snow atop the Chugach Mountains, which, by the way, you can see vividly to the east. See what I mean about views?

The Lakefront’s signature characteristic is its access to flying. Whether arriving or departing from the international airport or heading out on a daylong adventure via float or bush plane, The Lakefront can help you get where you’re going.

A private floatplane dock sits at the edge of the property, and rare is the summer morning when some lucky guest is not climbing aboard, fishing pole or camera in hand, ready for a few hours of remote, rugged Alaska wilderness minutes from the city. Ask at the front desk for a list of recommended float plane companies. 

Also in the heart of Spenard, one of Anchorage’s oldest neighborhoods, the Lakefront doesn’t put on airs. Maintaining a welcoming and friendly atmosphere that appeals to residents and visitors alike, staff know their job is customer service, and from the three dining establishments to the front desk staff, everyone is treated like family.

The Appeals of Luxury

Choose a deluxe-style room with Alaska touches in artwork and decor and find affordable, comfortable luxury for the duration of your stay, or choose a larger suite, perfect for families or groups needing a bit of extra space. Dine in-house at the Flying Machine Restaurant, a nod to neighboring airfields and Lake Hood, the busiest seaplane port in the world; have a cool drink and appetizer at the Fancy Moose Lounge while watching baseball or football game on one of their large-screen televisions; or simply relax in the grandeur of Alaska outdoors on the new Deck at Lake Hood, where you can clink a glass with a friend or relative in appreciation of your accommodation choice. Families traveling with children will certainly appreciate the kids’ menus available at each restaurant, including the Fancy Moose lounge, where youngsters are welcome. 

GoTip: Children under 12 can also choose to participate in the Ask Alfred program for a nominal fee, whereby receiving a backpack stuffed with Alaska-themed goodies and a stuffed teddy bear. Ask upon making reservations for details.

If you’d like to wander the neighborhood a bit, searching for local cuisine, Spenard offers a collection of old and new favorites, but without a metropolitan ambiance of nearby downtown. The Lakefront staff are also available to provide highlights of downtown and neighborhood dining and call a taxi for those needing transportation to the heart of Alaska’s largest city.

Outdoor recreation from the hotel is simple for those itching to explore this historic and fascinating segment of Anchorage’s industry. From the back deck of The Lakefront curves a four-mile trail looping around Lakes Hood and Spenard, and continuing into the heart of small-plane territory.

If you’ve got the gumption, take the level, paved trail all the way around, stopping to notice the personal style of local pilots as they baby their flying machines. Pay attention for moose along the north side of the trail, as a local park often attracts these ungulates to the brushy leaves and green grasses of summer. On the south side of Lake Hood, swing into the Alaska Aviation Museum, where a complete history of the state’s appetite for flight is explained and three hangars of aircraft are available for inspection.

Considering a wintertime visit? The Lakefront has been the official headquarters for the Iditarod Sled Dog Race since 1986, and come early March, the hotel swells with mushers, dog teams, race volunteers, and a host of race enthusiasts. Bustling the entire first week of March, reservations are a must well in advance of the event, as far out as one year prior, since the property’s access to the race is well-known and always appreciated.
