“Strewn like seeds in the wind, Alaska’s Aleutian Islands are flung out into the stormy North Pacific for eleven hundred miles. The islands break the seas as a spine of volcanic mountains, hemming in the Bering Sea to the north, and reaching in an arc between western North America and eastern Asia. Rugged, windswept, cold and wet, these islands possess a unique vegetation alike any other on earth." -Suzi Golodoff, from her book "Wildflowers of  Unalaska," an excellent resource.
