               Publisher - Scott Graber
         As the publisher of the  TRAVEL GUIDE, I have
      over 45  years of experience exploring the great
      state of Alaska.                                            Main Edition of

      Kodiak bears battling over salmon.  Along the                 covering                 North
      way,  I have come across some remarkable towns                Northwest
      and have met extraordinary people from all over             USA, Alaska, &
      the  world.  When most people plan their  Alaska                                                    EDITION
      vacation, they book one of the numerous cruise                 Canada
      ships that frequent the waterways of the 49th state.
      While traveling in one of these floating cities has
      its place, it does impart a more restricted form of
      vacationing, as groups of people are herded on and
      off the ship with very limited time devoted to each
      port.  If sight seeing with thousands of other people
      isn’t for you, then I would suggest you follow the
      itinerary for  Travel Guide’s “Eight Perfect Days in
      Southeast Alaska.”
         Next  year marks the 50th anniversary of
      Travel Guide publications. We began with an IBM    Experience                           Experience
      typewriter, a 35mm camera, and a simple vision: to
      provide travelers with information about Montana   Alaska                             Alaska
      and British Columbia. Half a century later, we are
      proud to be a full-color, multi-magazine publication          EDITION                              EDITION
      covering the Northwest,  Alaska, the  Yukon, and                                       Southeast
      British Columbia — a trusted travel companion for
      thousands.
         From glaciers to rivers to  wildlife, our
      publications have captured the spirit of exploration
      for generations. Here’s to 50 years of adventure—
      and the journeys still to come!
