Just read this today, but if you get to Valdez stop by Magpie's bakery. My brother Paul's wife owns it and it's the best home made baked goods you'll find anywhere. Paul was manager at Anadyr Adventures sea kayaking for 7 years and knows all about the area. He'll tell you all you'd ever want to know about the area and can steer you to whatever fun or sights you're looking for.
