We saw a moose mom and yearling today on our walk. It was a very gloomy, windy day so this brightened our walk immensely! #Alaska #AlaskaWildlife #Moosetodon

This is Mt. Spurr; it's a volcano and has been quite active for several weeks. The Alaska Volcano Observatory says there is a very good chance it will erupt, which hasn't happened since 1992, I think. We live very close to Mt. Spurr. I very much do NOT want it to erupt!! 😞 #Alaska #MtSpurrVolcano
A beautiful photo of the Mt. Spurr volcano covered in snow in Cook Inlet, Alaska. It has been quite active for a few weeks.

Close-up view of an alpine forget-me-not (Myosotis asiatica), Alaska’s state flower, with clusters of small, vivid blue flowers each with a yellow center surrounded by a pinkish ring. The flowers are growing on a slender green stem with small, textured green leaves. The background is softly blurred, showing dry grass and tundra vegetation in the White Mountain National Recreation Area, photographed in late June.


#Alaska #weather acting up again y’all.
Two days ago vs. Two weeks ago.
it has snowed more in the past three days than it has in the past three months.

Oh, also there’s a #volcanoeruption on the horizon
nighttime scene heavy snowfall covering a residential street, snowflakes illuminated by a street light 3 days ago
an open field on a cloudy day, old yellow grass, covering most of the area with some splotches of snow left over. Two weeks ago


This moose has an ear tag. He's also being quite chill on a Sunday afternoon. We had about an inch of snow yesterday, but it's already gone here. Photo by Lacee Johnson. #Alaska #AlaskaWildlife #Moosetodon
Handsome bull laying in the snow somewhere near Anchorage. He has an ear stage in his right ear.

As I kid I dreamed of working as a meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Alaska. Thanks to the timing of my birth, through good times and bad, I spent more than more than 30 years doing just that. Today, hundreds of similar dreams were shattered. To all of you, I am so sorry. #NOAA #Alaska


Remember when Sarah Palin was an environmentalist promoting vehicle emissions testing in Alaska? This is from 2004, before she was governor and then VP candidate. The Anchorage I/M Vehicle Inspection Program was discontinued in 2012. #alaskahistory #alaska


"After years of review, the U.S. Department of the Interior finalized a decision to retain protections for 28 million acres of public lands in #Alaska.

The fate of these areas was previously in flux following a Trump-era effort to open them up to development, including oil and gas extraction."

Another example of how you can see Harris' fingerprints in #WhatBidenDid: this admin listens to the voices of Indigenous people.


Here's #WhatBidenDid for pristine wilderness areas in Alaska:

"Today, my Administration is stopping a 211-mile road from carving up a pristine area that #Alaska Native communities rely on, in addition to steps we are taking to maintain protections on 28 million acres in Alaska from #mining and #drilling," Biden said in a statement. "These natural wonders demand our protection."

Lituya Bay ist eine Bucht an der Pazifikküste Alaskas. Am 09.07.1958 löste ein Erdbeben einen riesigen Erdrutsch aus. Das ins Wasser stürzende Gestein verursachte einen Mega #Tsunami der noch in 520 Metern Höhe am Ufer der Bucht Bäume wegspülte.

Trump tritt Alaska an Russland ab: „Man muss Frieden machen, bevor es Krieg gibt!“

In einer spektakulären Erklärung hat Donald Trump heute angekündigt, Alaska offiziell an Russland zurückzugeben. Der Grund? „Wenn wir Alaska behalten, könnte Russland es ja eines Tages zurückfordern. Wir wissen alle, wie das endet. Sehen Sie sich die Ukraine an! I

Inside a glacier cave under the Canwell Glacier in the Alaska Range, looking out through a small entrance framed by deep blue ice. This incredible cave collapsed a couple of years ago, but new ones are always forming in the lower moraine of the glacier.

#alaska #glacier #photography
A view from inside a glacier cave beneath the Canwell Glacier in the Alaska Range, looking out through a small, rounded exit. The ice walls surrounding the entrance are deep blue with layered textures, smooth curves, and embedded debris. The ice is illuminated by soft, diffused light filtering through from outside. The cave floor is covered in dark, rocky moraine material. Through the opening, a bright, rocky landscape is visible, contrasting sharply with the cool-toned ice inside the cave. The cave itself has since collapsed, but similar formations continue to emerge in the glacier’s lower moraine.


An unforgettable aurora display over Fairbanks, Alaska on January 14, 2023. The sky erupted in swirling green waves, stretching directly overhead in a breathtaking show of motion and light. This might have been one of the most incredible displays I've ever seen.

#alaska #auroraborealis
A vivid aurora borealis display over Fairbanks, Alaska, taken on January 14, 2023. The green aurora stretches across the night sky, forming swirling bands that radiate outward in sweeping arcs. The perspective is from the ground looking straight up, framed by the silhouettes of tall, leafless birch trees and snow-covered evergreens. The aurora has areas of both diffuse glow and sharply defined, ribbon-like streaks. Faint stars are visible in the background, scattered across the deep black sky. The intense green light from the aurora reflects on the snow-covered branches, giving the foreground a soft illumination.

#Trump will aus #Gaza ein Touristenressort machen, #Grönland mit #Öl-Bohrtürmen zupflastern und #Kanada stört auf dem Weg nach #Alaska sowieso.

Langsam frage ich mich, ob die berechenbare Überwachungsdiktatur von #China gegenüber den unberechenbaren Herrschaftsfantasien der #USA nicht das kleinere Übel ist. (Natürlich nur rethorisch.)


#trump vs. #putin : 4-2

#putin: "voglio la Crimea"; "voglio l'#Alaska"
#trump "voglio la #Groenlandia", "voglio #Gaza"; "voglio il #Canada"; "voglio #Panama
