I visited Alaska this summer and took a helicopter tour with glacier landing which was totally mind-blowing. BTW, the bears in Katmai are brown bears, not grizzly bears.

Oh the Talkeetna one? Ya that’s awesome!

Haha yeah you are right. They are brown bears! Somehow I have always considered them same as they are quite similar but definitely they are different!

What would you recommend as the first location and season for a visit to Alaska?

Definitely summers as it’s not that cold and you can visit more places as the days are longer. I would recommend going to Anchorage, driving up to Denali ( maybe camping) and also down to Whittier for glacier tours. That’s a good introduction to Alaska.
