Colorful Skies- The deserted road in Alaska



Alaska is a mysterious part of North America. It is difficult to know what lies ahead! Very well maintained (at least in the parts I visited) long roads are very much deserted, take you to something wonderful. Grey all around, once in a while a snow capped mountain peeks out for few seconds. It is really amazing to get lost in that grey.


I always want to go back to explore more! Till then I am going to enjoy these pictures from archives!

I had mentioned in earlier post that 2013 seems to be very unlucky for me with respect to travel. Never thought it would be this bad! My sister sponsored me a trip and I am in USA now with a plan of a grand road trip to American South-West which includes the most beautiful national parks and state arks in Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona. US government shuts down?! How is that?

    Lovely shots of Alaska! I am hoping the National Parks open soon and this stupid shutdown comes to an end. I also have a vacation planned that included some parks.

    Wishing you safe travels and a happy weekend!

    Shame about the shutdown... These shots are truly lovely! I've always wanted to visit Alaska - I imagine Sweden is fairly similar to it in many ways.

      Yes, it is very sad! Some of us International tourists have waited for the permits for years and have spent the savings on the trip! I wish you a great trip to Alaska!
