The Goods Are ODD!

Before I even made it to Alaska, I heard it. People couldn't help it...a single, female going to Alaska. Of course! This was my chance to find a mate-my mountain man. On numerous occasions, I heard it.
"Liz, the odds are good, but the goods are odd." They say the ratio of men:women is 10:1.
Nowhere is this more celebrated than in the town of Talkeetna which has its share of bachelors, and understandibly so. Talkeetna is where those bold and crazy enough to tackle the tallest mountain in North American, pack their wares, prep for the trip, and take off in a plane to get dropped off at the base of the mountain. You can imagine that men that choose this lifestyle are often also single. This doesn't phase those in Talkeetna. In fact, Talkeetna celebrates its bachelors, as evidenced below.


I understand they even have an auction where you can purchase a date with one of these fine specimens. Can you imagine? "Yes, $100 for bachelor #39!" Be sure you read the bottom line of his profile "What are you looking for in a woman?" Can you believe I didn't find my mate there? Oh, Alaska!
