Fodor's Expert Review The Knotty Shop
North Pole and Salcha
Store/Mall
This shop has a large selection of Alaska handicrafts as well as a mounted wildlife display and a yard full of spruce-burl sculptures that photographers find hard to resist. Burls are actually caused by parasites in the living tree, and they create beautiful patterns in the wood. Don't forget to scoop up one of 50 ice cream flavors at the spruce-burl counter.
