Last weekend I made a quick trip to Anchorage. I never go to Anchorage in the summer time, and it was very weird to see the place so green and lush. I have also never gone hiking in Anchorage. It is a totally different place from Kodiak.
I think my favorite place in Anchorage was amongst the HUGE cottonwood trees. On Kodiak people collect and carve cottonwood tree bark that we find along the high tide line on the beach. I have always been a little skeptical that it actually is cottonwood bark because the Kodiak cottonwoods never seem to have such thick bark. But in Anchorage they do. Mystery solved!
