But, despite Alaska having made history last week as the third US state to legalise recreational weed, I can confidently report that I'm yet to catch a whiff of a single spliff there.
It's not that I expected to, really. In Colorado, where they've been legally selling pot for more than a year, you can smell the enormous hydroponics warehouses from half a kilometre down the street.
But Alaska isn't selling it yet. Not for another nine months.
For the time being, its residents can grow, smoke and share. They just can't stock up at the local mall.
What's extraordinary about this development is that it passed with almost no fanfare.
Alaska is a staunchly Republican state - albeit with a blazing libertarian streak - where public TVs are always tuned to Fox News and Sarah Palin is a treasure.
Although many other conservative US states maintain archaic marijuana punishments and you can still be jailed for limited possession, people here voted to legalise it once and for all.
In Anchorage, I got talking to a guy with a cowboy hat and a stars-and-stripes pin on his chest.
"You know what?" he said, when I asked about the new laws. "I honestly think people here just quit caring."
A decade, we reckoned, before the whole US follows suit. The last frontier, indeed.
