I've been to Nome a few times because of work. It is definately on the fringe of civilization. I'd like to return during the winter sometime....
The photo above shows a view of the tiny settlement from my airplane.

Hiya Frank. I would love to visit up that way one day. It's interesting to see the little out of the way places. Thanx for sharing. Cheers, Ann :o)
Frank, you certainly do get to some out of the way places! This looks like one that I would be interested in. Great photos on your Intro page!
Interesting story about how Nome got it's name. I'll be going there in a couple of weeks. Thanks!
i liked the story about the origin of the (no) name. thanks!!!
This is a pretty out-of-the-way place. . .rather try my luck in Kotzebue.
Nice tips :-)
Okay..If I had to choose between Nome or the Bahamas....Hmmm.
an interesting page & a great landscape !
An interesting small town! Best (only photo) of Nome on VT!
Nice!!!!
