Fun facts about my two favorite states:
* Arizona is 113,990 sq mi (295,234 km²)
* Alaska is 665,384 sq mi (1,723,337 km²)
About 80% of Arizona is accessible by road, but only about 20% of Alaska is accessible by road.

Incoming float plane: an old de Havilland Beaver, the Canadian bush plane.
I love these very old planes.
I might have flown in this one at one point in the nineties.

It wasn’t hard to feel a sense of #Solitude in the Western Arctic…there’s just not much in terms of civilization up there. Here’s a view from somewhere above Kobuk Valley National Park. #opcSpecialTheme 📸 #alaska #nationalparks #flightseeing #bushplane

"I sat to Palmer’s right, a motion-sickness bracelet on my left wrist, anti-nausea gum in my mouth, and a gallon-size ziplock at my feet. The copilot’s control stick started bobbing around between my legs in sync with Palmer’s." —Brad Rassler for Outside Magazine
