What do moose and vinyl fencing have in common? Probably not much other than the owners of Buy Direct Vinyl Fence also run a lodge in Gustavus Alaska. We love our customers from all our businesses and want to take great care of them so if you’re interested in visiting Alaska to tour the Glacier Bay National Park or participate in some world renowned Alaska Fishing, just mention you’re a BuyDirectVinylFence.com customer and we’ll give you a discount.
Why moose? Gustavus carries the distinction of being the only place in Southeast Alaska where only a short time ago moose outnumbered people 2 to 1. They are not sure exactly where they all came from, since it has only been 40 years since moose have inhabited this small area. According to Alaska Fish and Game the population in 1998 was around 180 animals, in December 2006 the count was 390; that amounts to 3.8 moose per square kilometer. Moose aren’t all Gustavus is known for as it also has the longest runway in Southeast Alaska measuring 6700′ long. It was built during World War Two as an alternative run way to Juneau, where the weather is not as predictable. However, the only thing predictable about the weather in Gustavus is…. “rainy.”
We might be able to somehow relate moose and vinyl fencing but we’d have a hard time with the other mammal Gustavus is known for, whales. Point Adolphus, only a few minutes away, is one of the premier places in the world where whales gather in such high numbers. Along with the popular Humpbacks, other species of whales including Greys, Minkes, and Orcas can be found here; it’s not if you will see whales, just how many.
If that’s not enough to get you to come stay in our Alaska fishing lodge, it would be good to know that Gustavus is also the gateway to The Glacier Bay National park. An incredible place where marine life, glaciers, bears, mountain goats, rare birds, bald eagles and breath taking scenery are all found in abundance.
