KETCHicons app for iPhone and iPad

Beautifully curated, the Ketchikan Story Project is a must-have travel companion.

If you’re planning a trip to Alaska’s Inside Passage, this app includes an interactive town map that will guide you to public art installations and other local attractions. If you are an armchair traveler with a special interest in remote locales with rich cultural/industrial history, you will find a treasure trove of historical information about the people and the passions that developed the area.

Ketchikan is a quintessential Alaska town, home to a centuries-old Native culture, a passionate (and wildly successful) commercial fishing community, a bustling waterfront, a rich heritage, and a thriving world- class art scene. The Ketchikan Story Project introduces you to Alaska’s First City via an interactive town map and five of the area’s most prominent icons—Chief Johnson’s Totem Pole, a de Havilland Beaver, a wild salmon, The Rock, and a logger—all of which are used to bring the town and its history to life.

Features:

• Interactive town map that provides a means of wayfinding as well as imparts a wealth of historical information.

• A 2-minute trailer for The Ketchikan Story Project films, all six of which are available free at ketchikanstories.com.

• Interactive features that tell Ketchikan’s story through five of its most notable icons: The Rock, Chief Johnson’s Totem Pole, the de Havilland Beaver, a logger, and Yeltatzie’s Salmon.

• Perfect for cruise passengers, sport fishers, history buffs, and adventure vacationers alike!
