Winter sets in
Family in Healy AK report recent snow and very cold temperatures with high winds. Just another day in paradise and normal for living that close to Denali National park. The locals report the tour...

Well over half the people we met at RV parks, sightseeing locations or along the roads WERE ALASKANS. When I'd ask them about it, they told me they'd been cooped up all that long cold, dark winter and it was time to get out and enjoy their beautiful state. Eight additional year's trips up there and I continue to see the same thing.
The reason for snow, ice, below zero temps, and long winters is so the residents can have some peace and quiet away from the tourists.
We worked an entire summer in an RV Park in Alaska. I think we have a pretty good understanding of the area.
Sounds like you misunderstood something meant as "tongue in cheek" Lighten up. Life is too short to be offended so easily.
