The Countdown Is On!

Last night I booked our ferry from Bellingham, WA to Juneau, AK. It was kinda expensive, but considering it's for 3 days, and a car is involved, it makes sense. Instead of renting a cabin for the 2 nights, we just purchased a sweet 4 season tent. Camping is allowed on the top deck, and they even have a covered camping area with public restrooms and showers. Why pay an extra $500 when you can camp and see the amazing view for free! (well, sorta free). 

We'll be on this bad boy on September 21st.

Considering I just spend $1,300 it is safe to say that this trip is OFFICIAL!

The countdown is ON! 

*67* days till we depart Beech Mountain for JUNEAU F*CKING ALASKA!

I'm not excited at all. Obviously ;-)

Alaska, Land of the Midnight Sun

I have decided to move to Alaska! Juneau to be exact. It's always been a dream of mine to make my way to the great Northwest and see the beautiful Alaskan mountains. Oh, and to ride some amazing fresh pow as well! :) Dustin and I have decided to finally do it. We are in the process of selling off stuff we don't need so we can pack the Subie to the max and hit the road in September. If everything goes as planned, we will be working for the Eaglecrest Ski Area's Snowsports School during the winter and will look for summer work (which is plentiful since it's a major port for cruise ships). 

I'm STOKED!

I will miss my friends and family, but I NEED this to happen. I want to see as much of the world as I can while it's still in one piece. 

If anyone has any travel advice on driving cross-country, or has lived or been to Juneau, please share! Any advice will be helpful and greatly appreciated!

Peace.
