Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show. The show consists of a 60-minute lumberjack competition providing a Disneyesque taste of old-time woodsman skills, including ax throwing, bucksawing, springboard chopping, log-rolling duels, and a 50-foot speed climb. It's a little hokey, but it's good fun (and kids will love it). Shows take place in a covered, heated grandstand directly behind the Salmon Landing Marketplace and are presented rain or shine all summer. 420 Spruce Mill Way, Ketchikan, Alaska, 99901. 907/225–9050; 888/320–9049; www.alaskanlumberjackshow.com. $37.
