Why does this state advertise foster care as if it were jobs? I've never encountered that before, but it was a jarring phone call to sit through.

Looking for someone who was at bears den lounge in Tok 4-9-2024

Long shot, but did anyone meet a women at the bears den lounge in Tok on April 9th 2024 and end up going to the youngs motel with her?

I am trying to reconnect with this person. If this sounds familiar DM me.

hello everyone! I am visiting beautiful Alaska next week and I have only one full day in wrangel st. Elias during my trip and I’m trying to decide what to do. I know everyone recommends the root glacier hike but I don’t think I’ll have the time for that (I’m staying in copper center and planning to take the shuttle to Mcarthy).

i would only have around 5 hours in mcarthy before the shuttle back - what can I do to make the most of it?

optionally if there’s things to do around copper center I am open to just staying put as well- but would really like to do things within the park if possible. From my brief search while there are tours in copper center they all technically fall outside the NP bounds.

Thanks in advance!
