Thank you for the good job you do each spring in promoting the Alaska Folk Festival (AFF). My annual AFF membership is, hands down, the best 50 bucks I spend each year (since 1989). But my guess is that less than one of twenty Juneau CCW readers are AFF members. Many enjoy, few pay!

Alfred Brooks was a geologist who traveled thousands of miles in Alaska and left his name on the state's northernmost mountain range. Twenty years before his death in 1924, he also left behind a summary of what Alaska was like over a century ago, when "large areas (were) still practically unexplored."

I was confronted by a surprising fact a few months ago while driving on the Glen Highway. My road trip companion, a friend from Connecticut, remarked that Alaska is probably the last state in America with both towns and vast swaths of land ceded to roadlessness. I couldn't believe it. I'm a proud and eager booster of Alaskan exceptionalism, but I was surely convinced that bastions of roadlessness must have persisted in the far-removed corners of the other 49 states.
