But I know Athens, better that I know Dublin truth be told. <br />Alaska used to be on my list from way back. I had a thought of seeing the ice barrier break around Ax Point, on the Mackenzie River. The spring melt some years builds up under the Great Slave Lake so that it bows the ice. But air pressure keeps it in place. So the pressure builds and is forced out along the frozen river channel so much so that bus sized chunks of ice are hurled out of the channel. <br />Thence to Skagway up and over and down the Yukon through Dawson and out into Alaska proper.<br />Of course them were the days when a self made cabin in the Canadian far woods was the 'dream'.
