Talking About Talkeetna

A daily photo blog where you can learn how to navigate Main Street as well as the rest of Alaska with Talkeetna Travel. You'll probably meet more of the town's dogs than townspeople. I'm your blogger, Laura. When not blogging I'm skiing, splitting wood and hanging with my dog, Butterball.

After you've enjoyed our photos, please visit Talkeetna Travel's website. We specialize in authentic, locally owned lodging and activities in Talkeetna, as well as throughout Alaska. Transportation, too! We hope these photos bring you to our free reservation service that will help you have the most colorful Alaskan experience possible. http://talkeetnatravel.com

New! You can now view daily updates (and leave comments) on our Facebook page.

Butterball was a working dog and spent many years in harness before I got her four years ago. She was in two Iditarods (she didn’t finish either but who cares as she liked the couch better.) This is from a 36-mile skijor trip I took with her in 2009. The Tokosha Mountains of the Alaska Range are in the background. Also, I don’t want to blame ending the blog all on Butters passing. It is hard to take a new photo and write a caption everyday. It’s been almost 3 years of doing it and I need a break.
