Alaska Safety Training Online & On-site

 

Alaska is home to the largest glacier in North America, the Bering Glacier. It’s sometimes nicknamed the Land of the Midnight Sun because for over two months in the summer, in the northernmost part of the state, the sun doesn’t set at all.  Alaskan natives created Aqutak, or Eskimo ice cream, which is a mix of seal oil, animal fat, snow, and wild Alaskan berries.
