Arctic Entries

Martin moved to Alaska in 1975 when his parents gave him a one way ticket to Anchorage from California. Upon landing in town, Martin decided that it wasn’t exciting enough and headed for the seaport of Seward. In 1986, he got lucky and convinced his wife to marry him and produced two sons: David and Mark. He retired from the National Park Service last year and runs the Wooden Ski Classic—if we ever get snow—and coaches Junior Nordic.
