Worth knowing.

Golden opportunity.

Alaska was founded by Russia in 1784 at Kodiak Island. In the 1860s the land was sold to the US for $7.2 million, roughly two cents per acre: the deal became known as 'Seward's folly' after gold was discovered. Alaska was finally admitted into the Union as the 49th state in 1959.

Wide open space.

Alaska has the most room per person in the USA, at one square mile each. If Manhattan had the same population density, only 16 people would live there. Alaska has 17 of the 20 highest peaks in the US, more than 100 active volcanoes, over 27,000 glaciers and more than 3 million lakes.

Stunning skies.

Nearly a third of Alaska lies within the Arctic Circle, making it a perfect place to explore the heavens after sunset. The Northern Lights make their colorful appearance in all seasons: in some parts of the country, you can view this phenomenon up to 243 nights of the year.
