🎶 Somewhere this summer, a tourist is about to say “Val-dezz”… and a local is gently whispering, “It’s Val-DEEZ.” 😂🌊
So naturally, we turned Prince William Sound, Columbia Glacier, Copper River salmon, harbor nights, and Val-DEEZ into one dangerously catchy little tune.
Fair warning: you may start planning a summer road trip before the chorus is over. ⛰️🐟🚤 More News Here: www.alaskaheadlineliving.com

More Salmonfest art at the Ninilchik Fairgrounds that I have never seen before. Just beautiful! #Alaska #NinilchikFairgrounds #Salmonfest #SummerInAlaska

These next few sets of photos were taken at the Ninilchik Fairground, which is also where Salmonfest is held each year. I have not been to Salmonfest in a few years so all of this was new to me. Needless to say, we have some extremely talented humans in our state! Enjoy! #Alaska #SummerInAlaska #NinilchikFairgrounds #Salmonfest

A black bear on a trail somewhere near Anchorage. Photo by Lacee Johnson. I share this because I ran into one of these guys while walking on one of my favorite trails last week. As I walked up a hill and rounded the corner, I heard rustling behind a bush on the side of the trail; I stopped and a black bear, not quite this large, took off into the woods. I went in the opposite direction, walking very calmly. Once I thought I was far enough away, I stopped for a moment and could still hear the bear so I turned around again. Never have I been so relieved to get back to the parking lot. In 24 years in Alaska, this was my first encounter with a bear on the trail and I hope it was my last. #Alaska #BlackBearsOfAlaska #SummerInAlaska
