On this day: Alaska is #49
On this day in 1959, Alaska was admitted to the Union. Hawaii would follow soon thereafter. Peaks in its relevance have occurred, several times, but the last frontier has never had a watershed event for publicity, nor dramatic growth.
This might be a fun time to play "guess the peaks." Each date is linked to a relevant Wikipedia article.
