    Ketchikan is on the southern peninsula, so the weather is a lot milder than, say, Fairbanks. As of a few years ago, the only way in or out was by boat or plane, no roads. Don't know if that has changed.

    I would go to Alaska to cover the Iditarod and off-beat stuff like that. But just to cover the high schools? I can get that just about anywhere.

    Wow, that's funky. I just looked it up in Google Maps.

    Mark, that still appears to be the case, that there's no roads in or out. There is a "highway" that goes out of town on each side, but it eventually peters out into a dead end on each side as it goes northward.

    Fairly normal for Alaska, I believe. Juneau, which is of course the state capital, is the same way.
