What a weird combination of enjoyable adventure and truly unlikeable people. Imagine moving to a pristine wilderness, in part because you don't like what's being done to the environment, and then strip mining that wilderness with bulldozers.

There's nothing quite like an adventure in Alaska to distract you from 110+º summer days. (Out mosquitoes have got nothing on the ones in Alaska, though.) Norma Cobb is a heck of a woman. So far, I don't think we'd be friends, but I very much respect her grit.
