Looks like fun. It doesn't look like it was that cold judging by what you're wearing.

Looks awesome, makes me miss it. Lived there for 4 years, would give anything to go back. I've given serious thought about going back, just too damn expensive trying to get a job lined up considering my career field. Believe it or not, pretty decent car scene in the Anchorage area and one of, if not the most beautiful 1/4 track in the country.

You live in Florida and had to go to Alaska to catch big fish?

Alaska is awesome! I spent a week there and damn near wanted to stay. The locals told me I can't because people born and raised in Florida will die when winter hits and there's nothing they could do to save me. lol

No comparison whatsoever. Alaska kicks Florida's ***, and I love Florida.

not necessarily to catch "big fish" but to catch some pacific halibut/salmon/cod/rockfish. also my father works on the north slope, and i meet him in anchorage once a year to visit/fish. IT WAS A BLAST! the temp averaged around 60-65 mid-day to 35-40 in the mornings. and thats summer, i couldnt hang during winter

Winter is no worse than most places that get snow, atleast Anchorage isn't. Fairbanks is another story, it gets straight cold up there for weeks at a time.
