Cultural tourism brings day-trippers to village and museum in Anaktuvuk Pass, while surrounding Brooks Range attracts hikers; sport hunting for caribou, moose and bear is highly popular in north-western Alaska; and, in Yakutat, cruise ships visit tidewater glaciers in fjords that are home to seals and other marine mammals. |
