Anyone up for a little ptarmigan? Get your minds out of the
gutter and into the frying pan, folks—ptarmigan is Alaska’s
state bird. It seems that in the late 1800's, hungry gold miners,
looking for chicken, spied ptarmigans. Before those birds
could squawk in protest, they were wrung, plucked, and spun
over a campfire. Licking the grease off their lips, the miners
decided to name a town after these birds. However they could-
nt agree on how to spell ptarmigan, so they named it Chicken.
To get to Chicken, take the Top of the World Highway, cross
Chicken Creek, turn left and you'll hit downtown. As long as
you don’t mind the lack of constant electricity, phones, televi-
sion and indoor plumbing, you'll have a blast drinking goats’
pepper juice and cinnamon schnapps at the Chicken Bar.
