[drew_s7]

yep we live in an igloo. and we have ten feet of snow outside. it makes it hard to feed my pet polar bear because he likes to hide. although its cool because you can get your dogsled license when u are 14 ( i have my own dogsled and license already). zact26 will tell u his igloo is down the street.

I'm sorry if I offended zac or drew, though I sure they understand it was just a joke... i still say you move to a nice warm place like florida or ca... ;)

I watch out though Assasin, thanx for the advice.

[Ebonclaw]

Paintball in Alaska sounds painful. You'd be shooting marbs. Rather literally.

[Incube]

HMMMMM...alaska eh......You guy should join canada...your closer..and you country dosent even pay attetion to you..or do they?

[TheSickness]

we pay attention to alsaka all the time down in the mainland:rolleyes: . They are payed as much attention as any other place

[FalconMan]

sure thats what they all say

[Killer Kat]

I've been to Alaska, And I loved it! I'd love to go back! I didn't get a chance to see very much. I was on a ship (cruise liner) and did the inside passage Juno. Sitka, Kitchakan(sp?) I got sunburned and wore shorts every day! of course it was in June, But I loved it!

[Dräko]

Man, the only reason to live in Alaska (besides the beatiful sceneri) is to hang out with Doc man. If i lived in ALaska i would track his A** down. i would be his apprentice whther he liked it or not.

[DraXsuS]

yo dude drako is that u, u havent been here for a while!

[drew_s7]

for all you who want to know why i live in alaska. i live here because my dad took a job as vice president COO of a rather large corporation here. COO is 1 lower than the CEO and 2 lower than the President so we are doin pretty good here. plus i love it here in alaska.

[drew_s7]

and about paintball. i havent played in the winter yet. and i dont plans to in the near future. but i might when it warms up a.k.a like 34 to 44 degrees.

[drew_s7]

and lastly to spook. dont worry im not offended. in fact when i do play in the winter i am going to bury myself that would be the most frickin hilarious thing in the world to pop up on someone from under the snow. im going to do that to little kids(minus the paintball gun) on halloween next year. ill just throw snowballs or something.

[KOTOWA]

Alaska? What the hell is Alaska?

[ashaman]

i live in Alaska about 5 months of the year and all i know is it's ******. black bear hunting is definetly a plus.

[gato]

Alaska is nice for scenery or something to look at from a cruise boat but oh man would I hate to live there. If any of you have gone on a cruise there and went in to a city you may have noticed there were no malls etc. They were very small crappy and secluded and I highly doubt you could find a pb store or a movie theater. It would be boring as hell and most people are not even close to as well off as the people on the cruise boats.

I have said enough

[ZacT26]

we got malls and movie therarest century and amc.

[apoc_101]

do you have any 3 storey buildings?

[kr8er]

noone except the people who have lived there have any idea what its like.. its not always cold its get up to 75 in summer in anchorage.(i lived there when i wus younger and i visit my dad every summer for about a month) no its not always snowy about 4 or 5 months have no snow at all usually. and yea there are paintball shops and stuff (great alaska paintball co.) i love alaska i would rather live there then in dumb old alabama where i live. i live in huntville alabama and anchorage is a bigger city than this so its not all igloos and stuff people live normal lives just like us down here except the scenery fishing and hunting is about ten times better unless your a wuss who cant take a little cold in the winter

[kr8er]

and gato you are totally wrong .. anchorage alaska has a four story mall thats bigger than the one here where i live so dont go talkin bout shyt you dont know anything bout

[gato]

Hey man I went on a cruise, I think I know what I'm talking about. jk I didn't go to anchor....... probably because it is like the rest of the US and old people don't want to see that. Juneau was quite shiitown though

[kr8er]

sorry i wus in a bad mood that day... yes juneau is not that big of a city but anchorage is pretty big i mean its like any other big city cept its a little colder..

[Headhunter]

Never been to Junea, used to work in Anchorage for a few months, now back in Fairbanks. Play paintball, hunt and fish. Don't play in the winter time, something about running around in butt deep snow and -40, using CO2, just doesn't sound like fun.

i think it sounds liek a blast....:eyes:



i love it up there....i remeber when he kenai flooded and my uncles outhouse at his cabin went bye bye down the kenai river


he lives in anchorage but he has a cabin on the kenai ( if oyu didnt get it the first 20 times i said it)

[Headhunter]

should of been here during the earthquake! That was interesting. 7.9 on the ricter scale, about 90 some odd miles S.SE of Fairbanks.

[Tommy_pball]

when i was up there last there was a tremor....it was scarey

[Tommy_pball]

this place has died....



whats the weather been like lately? tomorrows high is supposed to be 52* down here...no snow yet

[Headhunter]

Unusually warm this winter. Have been below 0 only a for a few days and that was during Halloween. Snow fall is almost non exsistant(recieved a dusting of 3 inches in the past 24hrs). We did get hit really hard around mid October, about 12inches in less than 24hrs and then the temperatue warmed up to the 50s and melted most of the snow. Then the temp dropped and froze the melted snow leaving us with about 2 inches of ice on the ground.

So it didn't look like a winter wonderland, it looked like a very dirty, cold place to live. :eyes:

I think tomorrow is supposed to be up in the teens with more snow.

[capnuteee]

i want a igloo for christmas......how do you make them.....i live in mass so i dont think i will be making 1 anytime soon......hehe

[Headhunter]

I don't know, I live in a house. We have roads and even electricity!:D

[capnuteee]

smokeshack and you have a computer nice try!!

[DeFauLt]

last month at the sc ao day there was a guy from alaska who drove a week to play and his tank was out of hydro.

[Tommy_pball]

i need 3cc's of life stat!!!!


this forum is clinically dead

[Headhunter]

18 days since the last post! Was wondering how long it would go.

[Tommy_pball]

i know it was pretty sad....COLD! supposed to be -35* tomorrow here....then add the wind brrrrrrrr

whats the coldest its gotten up in ak this year

[Headhunter]

I believe -45. Of course after 20 below it doesn't matter. Hey question for you, is your winter a "wet" or "dry". Ours is dry so the cold isn't that bad but it also depends on where in the state you are. Anchorage is more wet than Fairbanks.


You know, if we're not careful, we may bring this thread back to life:eek:

[Tommy_pball]

wht do you mean by wet? like snow? well we havent gotten any snow yet, its just been really cold,i feel if its gonna be cold theres gotta be alot of snow with it, other wise it just sucks.

[Paint Bulley]

they got many colleges up in alaska?

[Tommy_pball]

i know theres one in anchorage, probably one in juneau


pb theres a problem with your location, it should be where bigfoot roamed, they found it was a hoax when big foots creater died

[Headhunter]

By wet or dry snow I mean the amount of moisture in the air. Or an easier way to explain it: How easy is it to make a snowman? In a dry climate(like where I live in Alaska) it isn't very easy, the snow is very "fluffy" In a wet climate(like Ohio where I'm originally from) it is very easy, the snow sticks together with much less effort.

As far as colleges go, we have the University of Alaska, Fairbanks(UAF); University of Alaska, Anchorage(UAA); and Unversity of Alaska, South East(UAS). If your really interested goto:http://www.alaska.edu/ and have a look.

[Tommy_pball]

ah gotcha


umm its alittle of both, i will be dry snow for about half the winter then wet the last half, thats when its best for sledding and stuff

[DragunSlayer]

my dads buddy lives in fairbanks, i've been to alaska and did many things there but i never thought of paintballing

[Tommy_pball]

itd be a hastle taking your marker up to alaska...the security at airports is a mess.

[DragunSlayer]

i wouldnt doubt that... how long is the paintballing season there.. 4months?

[Headhunter]

All weather dependant. We can start as early as mid-April and play until late Sept(like this past season). We (the people I play with) mainly run CO2 so that is a big factor. But considering we have almost 20+ hours of daylight during the summer, games lst a LOOOOONG time:D .

[DragunSlayer]

hell yeah i remember that 20+ hours when i was there, we got a lot of stuff done in one day... Even at night it just was dusk and never got dark... But winter is a different story huh, i'd love to rough out the winter in a log cabin with a woodburning stove and no vehicle (just a bike) in fairbanks like my dads friend, He is one tough soul'd man

[thepeashooter]

This has nothing to do with this thread its just i dont really have anything to talk about and I wanted to see if my avatar worked and this is the least used forum

sorry for the inconvenience

[DragunSlayer]

well noone ever said we were fond of canadians,

Headhunter-I might be going to to alaska again this summer, that would be bad ***.. Wont play paintball though, just site see and hang out at the cabin and shoot the s.h.i.t.

[Tommy_pball]

this is dead again.....ummmm i started a team....my uncle who lives in anchorage is comming to visit
