If you love everything about the mountains and rugged outdoors topped with the best scenery, then that IS Alaska.
Just moved the family back to WA after 18 mo living in AK. Still working on the Slope this winter and commuting and we WILL be back in a big way.
Have a great house and life in WA (And tons of that to explore too, only lived there 2 yrs before getting moved to AK), but after a couple months back at home, the WHOLE family said they'd move back in a heartbeat!
Not in the cards immediately unless my company gets a bunch more work up here but it will happen. Been looking for some property since we left. Just can't decide where!
Even though I had more time off work in the last year than prolly the last 5 combined, we didn't even begin to see or do everything we wanted up here.
It is expensive, especially if you're not getting paid to live here, but if you come prepared where all you need is food and fuel for the trip, it actually can be done pretty reasonably as you can camp for free about anywhere!
If you like cities, this ain't your place and it would be a waste of a drive, flight or boat ride to see Anchorage, but the other 10 gazillion square miles is impeccable!
