The Winning Beard Is:
David Traver of Anchorage was the grand champion in the 2009 World Beard and Moustache Championships. It’s woven like a snowshoe, and he plans to shave it for charity.
Many more pictures of various categories of competitive facial hair can be seen at the Anchorage Convention and Visitors Bureau PR Flickr Photostream. ADN.com has an illustrated story, too.
Another Alaskan man in the news is Alec Turner of Fairbanks, who summited Mount Everest a couple of days ago.

I have to say the beard is unique.
And peeps who climb Everest are nutso!
@warweasel - Do you know what Alaska women say about Alaska men? “The odds are good, but the goods are odd.”
Now life can go on.
