I remember that the hardest part of reporting in Alaska were the place names. There was a book called the Alaska Place Names Dictionary, but it was out of print and unavailable when I moved up there. I suppose with the internet, it is no longer a problem. Did you have any difficulties with the place named when you moved there? I still remember the name of one place, Dedhorse, Ak (is that the correct spelling of Dedhorse???? LOL)
