Happy birthday, Alaska.
Our nation's 49th state, the biggest of them all, celebrated the big 5-0 this year.
With 570,374 square miles of land, Alaska is hardly homogenous. The state is divided into five distinct regions for travelers to consider, each diverse and multilayered.
Trying to sum up Alaska in a short story is akin to writing the history of the world on a postage stamp.
Here is the tip of the iceberg (glacier?) on the regions, with information culled from www.
travelalaska.com, an excellent Web site run by the Alaska Travel Industry Association.
