Some folks would consider 2 weeks at the Bush Company as downright sinfull....

As others have said, sheep hunting. Or booze and hookers.
24HCF in its entirety, is solely responsible for why my children do not have college funds, my mortgage isn't paid-off and why I will never retire early enough to enjoy the remainder of my life.

3 days successfully hunting sheep. 3 days successfully hunting Kodiak bears. 3 days successfully hunting Moose 2 days successfully fly fishing. 3 days alone in a cabin with Halle Berry. Since this is my dream, Halle is infatuated with me.

I'd hang-out around here the last 2 weeks of sheep season! Superb photo. As good as it gets.

A tough decision because 2 weeks seems limiting ...
Can't decide between very large antlers or arctic char or salmon.
I petition for more time and $ to research the issue!
As an ignorant out-of-stater, I can't grasp how even 2 weeks in Anchorage could fail to be a great time.

I looked up the Bush Company last night. After reviewing the employee profile section of the web site, I'd say the name fits.

Back on topic, it would involve a hard slog somewhere in Mr. Claus' backyard.

I never realized they had a website I just turned in an app for you Art I was able to lift head and frontal view off the web, but need a backside shot for the application If they don't call you for an interview in a few days we'll sue the pants offa them for gender or age or both discrimination Oops my bad, lookin closer someone has already sued the pants off most of them
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

As an ignorant out-of-stater, I can't grasp how even 2 weeks in Anchorage could fail to be a great time. I've only ever spent two weeks in Alaska. Most of the residents on here will agree that they call it Los Anchorage. It's still a city and has all of the same problems; gangs, drugs, homeless, hipsters, politicians, etc. If you do find yourself with that short of a time frame you can do what I did and fly into Anchorage, stay long enough to get a feel for the "town" and get whatever supplies you need then rent a car and drive the Seward Hwy to Homer. I spent a couple days in Seward on the way including an excellent full day whale watching trip where we saw humpbacks, orcas, mountain goats, black bear, eagles, and a ton of sea birds including some puffins. I managed to get my limit of two halibut and release another on a half day trip out of Homer. Stop and have a beer at The Salty Dog. I wish I would have taken the time to visit Kenai and Whittier on that drive. I left Homer at night and drove to Denali N.P., including a nap at a park and ride outside of Wasilla. This is dangerous especially since it was the end of May and I had several close calls with moose on the hwy. Denali will provide you with a ton a wildlife viewing. I walked the road 6 miles further than the bus goes that time of year and was following grizzly tracks part of the way, also not recommended. I'll be back and for much longer than two weeks next time. I may just find a job and stay. You'll understand the feeling when you get there. I picked up seven different hitchhikers on my trip, it's a special place.
If it was easy, everybody would do it.
