Because... the people are simply wonderful
Musicians will play the fiddle or the guitar in the Village Park
There are great Alaskan artists to be found
Main Street ends at the river where you can find a great view of the Alaska Range
The train stops in Talkeetna
I can take a flight above Denali
I can go on a dogsled tour on a hot summer day
I can catch a salmon, a rainbow trout, and an arctic grayling all in one day
In the winter, the town is so nice and quiet
No street lights to obscure the Northern Lights in the winter time
Almost 24-hours of summer daylight
People help each other out
It’s rich in history
I get that sense of community
I can find the perfect skipping rock at the river
It’s quirky
