THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT
BEARFOOT TRAVEL MAGAZINES

BEARFOOT: WE'RE BIGGER THAN YOU THOUGHT!
Bearfoot is the only road guide distributed at the Anchorage Airport.
We dominate Denali Park, which is the most visited roadside destination in Alaska. Plus, we print over 5 times as many guides as the Milepost.TM 

INDEPENDENT TOURISM IS GROWING
47% of tourists coming to Alaska are what are known as "independent travelers." There's money in tourism; $2 billion is spent by travelers in Alaska. And 63% of that $2 billion is spent in Southcentral, Interior & the Far North.

TOURIST SPENDING IS HIGH
Independents spend more for a taste of Alaska and adventure. They travel more in the fall and early spring than they used to. And Alaskans who live in the cities are an important source of business for local economies.

INTEREST IN ALASKA IS AT AN ALL-TIME HIGH
Alaska's in the U.S.A. This means it's safe, hassle-free, and doesn't need a passport. Plus, we drive on the right side of the road. Even though Alaska is "American," it's wildly unique. We have glaciers, mountains, wildlife, Native culture, northern lights, rivers and fjords. It's America's most exotic destination, with wild rivers, salmon, huge parks, and places to explore, raft and take photographs of northern wildlife.

"BEARFOOTING" IS THE MODERN WAY TO TRAVEL
Travelers are becoming more interested in getting off the beaten path. They're looking for small communities and one-of-a-kind lodging and restaurants. They want authenticity, and meeting people who live in a region. 
There's an increased interest in history, culture and environment.​

THE BEARFOOT PHILOSOPHY OF INDEPENDENT TRAVEL IN ALASKA
"Bearfooting" is a verb. It means traveling in a relaxed manner. You'll know you're Bearfooting when you find yourself sitting beside a campfire and can't remember what day of the week it is. What's more, you won't even care.
