Follow Chris's Alaskan Adventures

By Laura Quinn, August 3, 2011

 Chris Bernard, Idealware's Senior Editor, is on one heck of an Alaskan trip.  In addition to his full time job at Idealware, he's writing a book (Chasing Alaska, Lyons Press, Spring 2013) about his own ancestor, Joe Bernard, who was an actual, honest-to-goodness arctic explorer, and the Alaska that Chris finds as he follows in Joe's footsteps.  So yes, he's a pretty busy guy.

 He's currently in Alaska, on, I believe stop two or three of about a twenty-stop trip. He's taking planes, boats, and driving overland, including going several places it's only possible to get to via float plane.  He's working on a commercial fishing boat, walking trap lines with a hunter, going to a bunch of historical societies -- and as he goes, interviewing about fifty people.
 
So it should be an amazing three-week trip.  Follow his adventures (on this trip, and as the book unfolds) on his blog, also called Chasing Alaska.
