WHITE MOUNTAIN
Calling Code: +1
White Mountain is located along the Fish River, on the Seward Peninsula in Alaska 60 miles east of
Nome. The town grew during the gold rush of 1900 and the population was 203 in the 2000 census.
It is small, as are most towns in Arctic Alaska. People visiting say this is one of the most beautiful villages in Alaska. It is the only
Bering Strait village located inland and is located along the famous Iditarod Trail and included
in both the northern and southern routes.
In contrast to other villages, White Mountain is legally damp. You can not sell alcohol, but you may bring it in or import it for personal use.
