Alaska is world famous for its natural beauty, majestic landscapes and diverse wildlife. Alaska’s Inside Passage Resorts (AIPR) provides travelers the best Alaska has to offer with package deals, tours and cruises.

No matter what you've heard Alaska referred to, The Last Frontier, Land of the Midnight Sun, or others, the one thing you'll never hear it referred to as is forgettable.

This weeklong experience, fondly known as the un-cruise, will include three full days spent inside Glacier Bay National Park with a park ranger along for the ride to share park history while helping to lead you on both kayaking and hiking expeditions through Glacier Bay.

Un-Cruise Adventures announced today its acquisition of the 64-guest Safari Voyager for its yacht fleet with plans to offer Luxury Adventures year-round in Mexico’s Sea of Cortés beginning in November 2013. In winter 2015, the vessel will transition to sailing year-round in Central America. Previously named Sea Voyager, the vessel is currently in Colombia undergoing renovation.

Alaskan halibut are found on the continental shelf of the North Alaskan Ocean and Bering Sea. They have been recorded on the North American coast from Santa Barbara, California to Nome, Alaska and are also found along the Asiatic coast from the Gulf of Anadyr, Russia to Hokkaido, Japan. Alaskan halibut live on or near the ocean bottom, and prefer water temperatures ranging from 4 to 9° Celsius. Although halibut have been caught as deep as 547 meters, they are most often caught in waters from 28 to 275 meters in depth.

On my orientation I learned that what attracts most visitors to Kenai Fjords Glacier Lodge is its location and stunning views of the Pederson Glacier and Lagoon. Situated on 1,700 acres within Kenai Fjords National Park, it’s the only lodge within the park. The lodge opened in 2008 after two years of development. It is well to note that every possible precaution was used to keep the building site in its original pristine condition.

Think of it like Domino's Delivery, only with road-killed moose instead of pepperoni pizza and extra cheese.

So is this the absolutely best way to land? It was the best way for this scenario, and I probably used a slightly different technique at the next location.

Some fishing stories are a little hard to believe, but this guy has pictures to prove his story... I've heard of salmon jumping into boats, but never anything quite like this...

Genetically modified salmon could soon be making its way to your dinner plate if the federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) grants final approval to a proposal from a Massachusetts bio tech firm.
