flying to skagway

We arrived in Juneau Alaska to 23 hours of sunlight and warm and clear skies. (Alaska and Yukon warm in fact even Canada warm). Flying across the land I am reminded that sometimes there is more to see in the middle of nowhere then in any large city. In fact, after traveling the great and ancient cities of the world, I realize that the more 'civilized' we become the more we need to touch base with nature and the earth's great unexplored wilderness. Climbing onto the 9 seat airplane to fly from Juneau to Skagway made me realize that the vast wilderness of the North is not just a place we are passing through or a place we are visiting... it is home.
