In Alaska, the Bush typically refers to any region of the state that is not connected to the North American road network[1] or does not have ready access to the state's ferry system. A large proportion of Alaska Native populations live in the Bush, often depending on subsistence hunting and fishing.[2][3]
Most parts of Alaska that are off the road or ferry system can be reached by small bush airplanes.[1] Travel between smaller communities or to and from hub communities is typically accomplished by snowmobiles, boats, or ATVs.[2]
