Landscape

Western Alaska is a huge region, stretching from the Seward Peninsula to the end of the Aleutian Islands, which are over 1,000 miles from the Alaska mainland.  The landscape is as varied as the region is spread out.  

The Aleutians are a set of steep, volcanic islands.  The Alaska Peninsula is made of a range of mountains and volcanoes between the Bering Sea and the Gulf of Alaska.  Kodiak Island is the largest island in Alaska (and second largest in the U.S.) The Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta is an immense series of wetlands where the Yukon and Kuskokwim Rivers drain into the Bering Sea.
