Alaska Southeastern Coast

The Alaska Southeastern Coast is emerged as the Inside Passage, and has long been a popular cruise route. Left, a Celebrity Cruise ship makes a stop in Juneau.

Southern Alaska has some of the most striking glaciers in the world, including Hubbard Glacier.

The Hubbard Glacier is the largest tidewater glacier in North America. Unlike most glaciers, which are retreating, it’s been thickening and advancing toward the Gulf of Alaska since it was first mapped in 1895.

The coast is also one of the best places to spot humpback whales.

The number of eagles, which live in Alaska is huge than anywhere else in United States.

    These are all great advices on how to protect your house in case of a wildfire but I somehow doubt that some sprinklers in the yard or closing the will actually help. I've seen for myself the fury and devastation a wildfire can produce and my advice is … move out of areas where these kind of event occur.
