I've been moving family members up here since I was in Jr. high. They come out here from the big city and get stuck and can't leave. It's so clean and nice, and if someone sees you litter they'll pick it up and give you a lecture on the environment.
I've been to only 2 glaciers, I hiked on the matanuska and took the tour out at Portage Glacier, I live in town, we only get black bears and moose in anchorage. The polar bears are way up top, but you can see one at the Anchorage Zoo. Very small zoo.
