It is, if you like ice, snow and barren rock. In early spring the snow melts and everything turns green for about 2-3 weeks then turns brown. It does have a kind of stark beauty. Any road not paved turns into muddy ruts. Years ago the EPA kept them from paving any roads due to the possibility of petroleum byproducts leaching into the surrounding waters. I don't know if they resolved the leaching issues or if mother nature took a back seat to progress.

I am an engineer on a fishing boat. Specifically a longliner. I am on the F/V Frontier Mariner where we primarily target Pacific Cod.
I am not on the Deadliest Catch but know alot of the people on there. Sorry, no celeb status here! haha

Hey that's still pretty dang cool.

A stark beauty is still nice. The serene quietness and fresh air. Down here in Washington there are a lot of areas with great forest views. On the eastern side of the mountains is the desert style scene where you have shear cliffs with awesome views.

Thanks Capt'n, there wasn't much of a vote for it. All I had to do was enter my name by posting in the thread for it then wait. If anyone volunteered to run against me, then there would have been a vote I think.

Yeah, some would dub me a Post Wh*re but there is just a lot of things to comment on! Also I take a lot of pictures of the things I do so I have to show them off!

She climbs wind towers? Damn, I don't even want to go near those things...

I don't think I'll go into Moderator. Chapter Leader is good enough for now. Once I get a full time job too it will reduce my time on here since I'll be 21 very soon and will be visiting some bars and liquor stores
