Alaska, is a sparsely populated state in the United States, in the northwest of the North American continent. It is the largest U.S. state by area (by a substantial margin), and one of the wealthiest (per capita).Alaska is one of two U.S. states not bordered by another state, Hawaii being the other. Alaska has more coastline than all the other U.S. states combined.It is the only non-contiguous U.S. state on continental North America; about 500 miles (800 km) of Canadian territory separate Alaska from Washington State. Alaska is thus an exclave of the United States, part of the continental U.S. but is not part of the contiguous U.S. Juneau, Alaska's capital city, though located on the mainland of the North American continent, is inaccessible by land—no roads connect Juneau to the rest of the North American highway system. The state is bordered by the Yukon Territory and British Columbia, Canada to the east, the Gulf of Alaska and the Pacific Ocean to the south, the Bering Sea, Bering Strait, and Chukchi Sea to the west and the Beaufort Sea and the Arctic Ocean to the north. Alaska is home of the Iditarod Dog Sled Race.The Iditarod is a 1049 mile race over the terrain of Alaska. The mushers and their dogs will travel over mountain ranges, frozen rivers, thick forests, desolate tundra and miles of coast. Alaska’s thriving cruise ship industry remains one of the most popular ways to see Alaska. Today, approximately 60 percent of Alaska visitors arrive or depart via cruise ship.
