Bush Planes, ATVs, and Old Fuel Trains: Transportation in Western AK


News volunteer Davis Hovey cannot stress enough that he did not get married last weekend, but instead, he went to the lower 48 to be one of the groomsmen in his best friend’s wedding.

In order to make it to the wedding and back to Nome within four days, Davis had to book a long, roundtrip flight with Alaska Airlines and United. That set up the theme for this week’s blog, which was transportation. All four of the volunteers discuss what mode of transportation they prefer to use, how they all arrived in Nome, and why they came here. This particular audio blog features a question which has been coined as the “Davis’ Deep Dive” portion of the audio blog.

Feedback is always encouraged, so feel free to tweet your questions, comments, and suggestions about our upcoming audio blogs to @tylerstup, @frostlaur, or @DavisMHovey on Twitter — or leave a comment, below. Enjoy, and thanks for listening!
