1. Meet Stubbs, A Cat That Also Happens To Be Mayor <\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Wikipedia <\/div>\n

Mayor Stubbs has held the honorary title of mayor in a small town in Alaska since 1997 (and still going!). There are some who claim it to be nothing but an urban legend, so it looks like you\u2019ll have to travel to Talkeetna, Alaska to find out for yourself.<\/p>\n

2. People Even Crazier Than The Temperatures Are Cold <\/h2>\n

You don\u2019t really know \u201ccold\u201d until you visit some parts of Alaska. But if you think that stops Alaskans from having a good time, you\u2019re sorely mistaken.<\/p>\n

3. An Igloo Worth More Than Most Houses <\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Bear Foot Alaska<\/div>\n

Alaska does have igloos, it\u2019s just that most people don\u2019t live in them. This one in particular was supposed to be a hotel but was never finished.
\nNow the 80-foot-tall structure sits abandoned and can be yours for a cool $300,000. Super villain hideout, anyone?<\/p>\n

4. The House Straight Out Of A Dr. Seuss House Book<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Unusual Places <\/div>\n

How tall can one house be? Could there be more floors than three? Could it be taller than a tree? Find the \u201cDr. Seuss House,\u201d between Willow and Talkeetna, and you\u2019ll see!<\/p>\n

5. Take A Walk Through The Mendenhall Ice Caves<\/h2>\n

There must be magic in the Mendenhall Ice Caves, as it boasts all the stages of the water cycle in one place, making a pretty spectacular sight.
\nAgain, super villain hideout, anyone?<\/p>\n

6. Make Sure To Bring Cookies When You Visit Santa Claus\u2019 House <\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

That\u2019s right. You can visit the big guy himself at his house in North Pole, Alaska. Bring your list of Grinches with you to ensure they end up with underwear in the stockings.<\/p>\n

7. A Costumed Race With Rudolph Makes You A True Alaskan<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

The annual Running of the Reindeer event takes place in Anchorage during the much beloved Fur Rendezvous event (Fur Rondy to the locals.)
\nPeople come from all over to race with Rudolph and his crew in their craziest apparel.<\/p>\n

8. The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Outhouses<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Alaska.org<\/div>\n

If running with reindeer isn\u2019t your thing, maybe you\u2019d prefer running with outhouses. The annual Outhouse Races take place during Fur Rondy, too, bringing out all that is wonderfully weird about Alaskans.<\/p>\n

9. Human Slushies: A Great Way To Kiss Winter Goodbye<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

What better way to welcome spring than watching fully costumed and perhaps slightly insane participants ski and flip their way into the icy melting slush from the Alaskan winter? Spring Carnival and Slush Cup are just another fantastic Alaskan quirk.<\/p>\n

10. Take A Bite Out Of Rudolph <\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Visit Anchorage Facebook <\/div>\n

And while you\u2019re in Anchorage enjoying Fur Rondy or Slush cup, why not grab yourself a famous reindeer sausage from M.A.s? And yes, before you ask, it really is reindeer.<\/p>\n

Because, ummm, why not?<\/p>\n

12. A Town Where Everyone Lives Together <\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Wikipedia <\/div>\n

Well, almost everyone. The tiny town of Whittier only has two buildings. One is apartments where the majority of the residents live, the other is abandoned and only lived in by bears.<\/p>\n

13. The World\u2019s Largest Chocolate Waterfall <\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: igorn <\/div>\n

Come to Anchorage to find a chocolate fountain so big, you\u2019ll be wondering when the Oompa Loompas will appear.
\nThe state\u2019s new motto should be \u201cAlaska: Pumping over 3,000 pounds of chocolate from 20 feet in the air just because we can.\u201d<\/p>\n

14. Upside Down Tree Gardens <\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Atlas Obscura <\/div>\n

When you think of Alaska, glaciers probably come to mind. But Mendenhall Valley is an upside down tree garden of sorts that will have you rethinking everything you know about the state.<\/p>\n

15. A Peek Of The \u201cLady Of The Lake\u201d<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: American Towns<\/div>\n

You can find the rickety old remains of a WB-29 Superfortress weather reconnaissance aircraft found partially submerged in a lake by Eielson Air Force Base.
\nThe Lady was put there for parts until the water of the lake rose too high and no one has bothered to retrieve her, creating an eerie scene you might find in a ghost movie.<\/p>\n

16. Ever Wonder Where The Name King Crabs Comes From? <\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Sure, everyone knows about Alaskan King Crabs. But now you know why they get the name KING.<\/p>\n

17. A Mountainside Village On Stilts <\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Ukivok is essentially a village on stilts built on the steep slope of a mountainside. When you see it, you\u2019ll wonder how it\u2019s still possibly standing over half a century after it was abandoned.<\/p>\n

18. Potlatch Totem Park <\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Get Your Guide <\/div>\n

Potlatch isn\u2019t the only place where you can find genuine totem poles. But with five tribal homes located on the property and the tallest of the totems reaching 42 feet high, it\u2019s definitely one of the most interesting.<\/p>\n

19. Some Moose Poop Jewelry <\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

And yes, it\u2019s actually made from moose poop.<\/p>\n

With attractions like a giant Mukluk book and Santa\u2019s rocket ship in this quirky theme park in the tiny town of Tok, Mukluk Land has been called \u201cThe most Alaskan place in Alaska.\u201d<\/p>\n

HAARP is the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program the government created to focus on physical and electrical properties of the Earth\u2019s ionosphere. But according to conspiracy theorists, it\u2019s everything from a death ray to a weather control device to a machine that drops cell calls at the most inopportune times.<\/p>\n

If your state had an elephant who painted better than you, there\u2019s no doubt you\u2019d have a memorial to her, too, no? Her grave can be found where she lived, at the Alaskan Zoo.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re thinking to yourself \u201cA museum of ice? I have that stuff in my freezer?\u201d you\u2019re not alone. But trust me, you don\u2019t have anything like this in your entire state, let alone your freezer. Sit on the ice stool at the ice bar and order yourself an ice cold appletini in a martini glass carved from ice to see for yourself.<\/p>\n

24. The World\u2019s Most Amazing Night Lights<\/h2>\n

Okay, everyone knows about the Northern Lights. But they\u2019re so magnificent, it\u2019s something that you have to see firsthand to truly believe.<\/p>\n

So, you built a two story sandcastle at the beach last summer? That\u2019s cute. Alaskans don\u2019t get much in the way of sand, but they do get plenty of snow and the conditions in the state are perfect for building ice and snow sculptures. The best of the best can be found during the Crystal Gallery of Ice competition and Fur Rondy.<\/p>\n
