Fishing in Alaska

By Brandon Edward

Greeting folks, summer in Alaska is just around the corner!  Moreover, fishing season is just around the corner.  I say that while I’m watching it snow at just shy of two degrees, but nevermind that; let’s talk summer fishing.  With some 1,500 views in the last thirty days, a third of which are from Alaska, […]

Fairbanks, Climate and Daylight

By Brandon Edward

Punxsutawney Phil was right, six more weeks of winter.  But I imagine Phil has no groundhog concept of Alaska.  I think they should bring him to Fairbanks one year.  I’ve got my money on the “immortal” groundhog freezing to death inside of five minutes in that pseudo stump of his.  How do you say #@$!@#@ […]

Ice Alaska, The World Ice Art Championships

By Brandon Edward

The World Ice Art Championships at Ice Alaska is probably the single coolest thing that I’ve seen in Fairbanks this winter.  Ice sculpting underwent a renaissance in interior Alaska in 1988 when organizers decided to revive the spirit of the 1930’s winter carnivals by flying in ice sculptors in from around the world for an […]

Biogas Digesters, The Science Behind

By Brandon Edward

This is freewheelings.com first guest post by Laurel McFadden, enjoy: As one of the science-types behind the Cordova Biogas project, I’m here to write a little nerd-post about the science that our digestors are based on.  Other than being a great opportunity to try to mitigate some of the energy needs of Alaskans (and northerners […]

The Alaska Marine Highway System – MV Aurora

By Brandon Edward

I’m writing today from the marine vessel Aurora of the Alaska Marine Highway System.  We’re currently cruising about 15 knots somewhere between Cordova and Whittier on the blue-green waters of the Prince William Sound.  I wanted to chime in today on how wickedly cool the marine highway system is, and simply just to travel from […]

The Alaska Highway by Volkswagen Bus – Part 3

By Brandon Edward

In case you just got here:  Part 1 and Part 2 Whitehorse.  I sing your song loud and I’ll sing it again. When you’ve been weeks driving and sitting along side the Alaska Highway sometimes you just need the comfort of a smiling face in the middle of nowhere.   Whitehorse is a town that knows what […]

Hitchhiking at -26, Alaska

By Brandon Edward

Haha, good idea right.  I’m a fan of hitchhiking in general.  It’s a good, cheap way to get around and lends you to many an interesting experience that you might not otherwise be privy to.  This post is destined to be about hitchhiking to Fairbanks from Nenana, Alaska on one very cold day, but I’m […]

Driving to Alaska – 10 Things to Think About

By Brandon Edward

This article is more for the adventurous ones that are thinking of throwing caution to wind and heading for Alaska than for those with a well padded bank account or two weeks vacation time. This is for those with an idea in mind, but maybe the details are still a little fuzzy. Okay, really, it’s […]

The Yukon Quest is Under Way!

By Brandon Edward

As most of you know I had the pleasure of living with Pierre Heritier, the Swiss musher as he trained for the Yukon Quest 2010.  This race is generally considered to be the world’s most difficult race and the supreme adventure through some of North America’s most difficult country.  As it were, the race commenced […]

Digging Razor Clams in the Prince William Sound

By Brandon Edward

So here’s a funny story without much content.  You know how is when you get some hair-brained scheme in your head and ignore absolutely every piece of advise and research that could possibly squash your hopes and dreams, so it was with the clams.  A little online research, of course, indicated that clamming season was […]
