Fred Mayac is alert, talking, and ready to leave the hospital. Mayac, 50, is an ivory carver who suffered serious injuries in a mysterious attack in South Anchorage on June 8. At first it appeared that Mayac had been stabbed. But emergency room staff later told Anchorage police they believed Mayac’s wounds were the result of a bear mauling.

Anchorage is blossoming with food trucks this summer, helped along by the Spenard Food Truck Carnival on Thursdays and K Street Eats, a new Monday–Friday food truck pod on the southwest corner of K Street and 8th Avenue.

Who made the world? Who made the swan, and the black bear? Who made the grasshopper? —“The Summer Day,” Mary Oliver And—my God—who made the whale? This whale. This humpback. The dead humpback that washed up outside Hope, Alaska almost a week ago before the tide called it back again, and then delivered it here—flung it along the beach at Kincaid Park in Anchorage. The humpback that Susannah and I can ripely smell hundreds of yards before we ever reach its massive, still and deteriorating bulk..>> view originalAnchorage runner wins back to back marathons, UAF runner takes ...
Submitted 4 hours 45 min ago by jcook.FAIRBANKS-When it comes ultra marathons you have to the physical and mental strength just finish that kind of a race. Well one man does that and more.
