Why I Oriented:

In my series of novels, the American Exodus starts in Alaska before working its way all the way down the Pan-American Highway to Ushuaia.  I’d also heard about the rumors of ancients, aliens, underground bases, and a lot more up here.  Of course I went to check it out, getting familiar with everything I had time for along its major roadways.  All of this was to eventually make it easy for me to reach the site of a 1950s giant pyramid reverse-engineering project out west of Denali; yes, there are megalithic ruins in this state, too, just as there seem to be everywhere else on our world.

Where I Went:

I flew into Anchorage and then drove down to explore the Kenai Peninsula, which blows even Montana away, let me tell you; absolutely towering, green, and beautiful.  From there, I made the only possible big loop through about 1/4 of the eastern-central part of the state.  I saw tons of the biggest cities and towns, and even went to the Open House at the original American HAARP facility all the conspiracy theorists like to talk about.  (They were very friendly and informative, by the way, and gave me access to the whole place, including the insides of all the high-tech equipment right under the massive, towering array.)

To see all of the state, you simply have to fly; there aren’t highways or even hiking trails in ~95-98% of it –and I confirmed this by attempting to reach many of them in my car.  (Hey, sometimes the legends and maps are wrong.)  Many villages are on islands, too.  So that’s what I’ve been setting up for my second pass, which is coming up; I’ll have air support and the beefiest all-terrain vehicles known to man (thank you, Russian engineers), and maybe even my own aircraft for the third and later passes.

What I Found:

People are generally even mellower and more helpful way up here than they are in Montana and other low-population areas.  Fairbanks isn’t the felon-overrun danger-zone some people led me to believe; it’s very nice, clean, and quiet, and boasts a fantastic university campus with endless potential.  Alaska is also very cool and green between its winters.  They have knock-out restaurants in the bigger cities, and some of the finest foreign babes I have ever seen; I had a no-shit supermodel from Serbia working with her blonde female supermodel friend right in the very hotel I’d booked.  Holy hell, they were fit and nice, and their accents!  To die for.  To live for.  What hotties.  My god.  Anyway…

When I’m Going Back:

As Phase 2 gets well underway, I’ve already been made offers to return and live for free up there, as well as to meet a female Air Force officer and pilot who is rumored to be gorgeous.  Who knows if we’ll hit it off, but you know me; I always go, always offer to build a proverbial bridge or two, and always see just how much is on the table.  Ideally, she and others like her will connect with me, arrange some great MAC deals (Military Airlift Command; free fast transportation in reliable cargo planes), and make it all the way to Inisfree for Phase 3.  Naturally, I want to wait until I am getting paid to go do these things, but I’ll take free whenever it presents itself for now.
