Talkeetna

I got red toyota. Change the way to north, to the range.






　

Seward

The way there is one of the most scenic highway in this state. Also a few hiking around some lakes are beautiful.








　

Anchorage

One of the bigger city in this capital. Surrounded by mountains and sea. But honestly, sometimes staying in a downtown of the city is not so fun, like this time. Not so many people is there, town is not so clean, some homeless people is there... But I think this is a typical situation in the city in north america. But I'm sure people still have a good life in the city, cuz I could have a good time when I did cycling on the coast trail on Sunday morning, same as many people are enjoying walking, cycling, or something else there. A city in the nature, Anchorage.










　

Whittier

A small town near Anchorage. Taking a ferry one day and 10 hours to north from Juneau. Rainy days made me tired...








　

Mt. Roberts, Juneau

Fortunatelly, I got backcoutry snowboarding one day in Juneau. Just hiking from the end of 6th street in downtown. Hiking up 4 hours. It is amaizing that unexpected alpine is there. Just behind of capital town of Alaska. That's amazing... How can we get great mountain in 4 hours walking from "Tokyo Bay"!?

Juneau

It's not the biggest city, but here is capital of Alaska. Beautiful town surrounded by sea and mountains. Staying couples of days.












Mendenhall Glacier, taking a bus 50min and walking 1hour from the town. Also nice walking in the park. Some iceberg are on the frozen lake =)

in the sunset

The way which is on the ocean but surrounded by hundreds of mountain. Alaska Marin Highway from Haines to Juneau, in the evening. One of the best cruising ever.

You must see this one by yourself...






　

Mountain

Yes, I got some of the big ones. But its not just fun, like reflective. I need to think more about this experience which I had in 33 miles far away from Haines. What is the important thing on my riding.








　

Inside passage

Inside passage : a naturally protected waterway from Seattle to Skagway in southeastern Alaska. Taking ferry couple of days there, from Prince Rupert to Haines.
















　

Ketchikan, AK

Yeahaaaa, yes, I got Alaska! Five hours from Prince Rupert by ferry. Getting here at midnight. Tha bay there is really quiet, like a mirror. Just a beautiful night town on the water. Nice "American" harbor town which someshing is diffrent from Canadian one...












　

Prince Rupert, British Columbia

A small town on the Pacific coast in northern B.C. The town in a beautiful sunshine and rain sometimes. The harbor town makes me relaxed. And that reminds me small harbor towns in Japanese northern islands. Of course, almost everything is different from Japanese one, but some small atmosphere is similar. Spending slower time which is last a few days in Canada.

"We must change. We wish to see in Prince Rupert."


This is a proof which here is on the Pacific coast. Some fishing equipment which came from Japan.


Really good hostel is there.
