Wednesday on Alaska News Nightly:

More than a foot of snow in Anchorage strands drivers across the city. Plus, a crab fishery five years in the making gets ready to open. And is dog mushing suffering from higher costs? Probably, but that’s not all.

Reports tonight from:

Chris Klint in Anchorage
Anna Canny in Juneau
Izzy Ross in Dillingham
Theo Greenly in Unalaska
Dan Bross in Fairbanks
and Raegan Miller in Ketchikan
