From the back cover: Spectacular scenery, magnificent wildlife and fun activities. Your trip along the scenic 127-mile Seward Highway will lead you through a diversity of Alaskan terrain. Beginning at sea level in downtown Anchorage, you journey along a picturesque coastal fjord, climb in elevation into alpine meadows, wind through maritime forests, and finally end your memorable trip again at sea level in the friendly coastal city of Seward. This mile-by-mile-guide will show the recommended scenic stops as well as telling you of the recreational activities and history of this honored All-American Road and Scenic Byway. A wildlife section will tell you about the birds and mammals that you may encounter along the highway and the nearby trails you may hike. Earthquakes, bore tides, glaciers and gold panning are just some of the many Alaska topics covered in these fact-packed pages. Hopefully youll have allowed enough time to drive this remarkable highway and also the time to stop along the way to smell the roadside flowers and breath the mountain fresh Alaska air. Happy Trails!
