What is the meaning of “The Last Frontier?” A vast expanse of wilderness, sparsely populated with small historic towns and colorful locals who find solitude here on the edge of civilization. Endless wildlife – bear, moose, salmon, eagles, caribou and more - that still reign supreme in the mountains, rivers, lakes, tundra and ocean bays. Mighty glaciers that reveal themselves in the highest peaks and flow to the valley floors. A landscape that is little changed from the unexplored world of a century ago. To walk and hike amongst its wonders is one of the great experiences of our time.
