We had a great day searching for bears in Icy Strait, Alaska! 🐻🇺🇸

We were fortunate to see bears, whales, and salmon—all in one incredible day. The beauty and wildlife of Alaska never disappoint!

It was a great trip, and I’m already looking forward to coming back next year. What an amazing experience! 🐋🐻🐟

I had the privilege of meeting with the Mayor of Skagway, Alaska, and Tourism Director Jaime Bricker of Explore Skagway Alaska.
We had a wonderful conversation and listened to the fascinating history of Skagway. What really stood out to me was how similar the histories of Skagway and Gas City are. Skagway grew during the Gold Rush, while Gas City grew during our Gas Boom. Both communities were built on opportunity, hard work, and people who believed in the future of their towns.
It was a pleasure meeting two amazing people, and I look forward to staying in touch and continuing to learn from one another.
You never know what great ideas and friendships can come from visiting another community.
