15 of the Most Epic Scale Places in Alaska
ALASKA is the USA’s largest state and home to Denali, the highest peak in North America. To put this into perspective, the state has a longer coastline than all the other US states combined with a land area of 663,268 square miles. Alaska is huge in size but relatively unpopulated. With around half its population (735,000 people) living in the Anchorage area, that leaves a hell of a lot of uninhabited and remote wilderness. In 1867, the US bought Alaska from Russia for a paltry 7 million dollars… The steal of the millennium in my opinion.
