The hardiest breed of Minnesotan can’t get enough snow, even in summer. That’s why Kami Brueshaber and Jason Aide of Minneapolis chased winter all the way to Talkeetna, Alaska, a “teeny town in the shadows of Mount McKinley,” wrote Brueshaber. She added: “Everyone there has a real laid-back attitude. Don’t expect much to be happenin’ before 11 a.m.”
As exciting as a visit to the towering mountain might be, the pair also took care to peruse a favorite reminder of their flatland home. What other publication besides The Rake could entice them to expose their hands—ungloved, mind you—to the chill air?
