Alaska Drug Information
Cocaine is readily available in most areas of Alaska and is seen with great frequency in powder form. Crack cocaine is available in Alaska’s major urban areas, such as Anchorage and Fairbanks. Powder cocaine usually sells for $100-$150/gram and is primarily ingested by snorting. Crack cocaine is sold in small rock quantities for $20 and is usually smoked.
Heroin continues to be available in Alaska. Different types of heroin are available in Alaska including Mexican, Colombian and Southeast Asian.
Marijuana is the most abused and widespread drug in Alaska. In June 2006, then-Alaska Governor Frank Murkowski signed HB149 which re-criminalized the use and possession of marijuana. There is a high demand for Alaskan-grown marijuana because of its high THC content.
In Alaska cocaine trafficking is controlled primarily by
Mexican and Dominican trafficking groups. Crack cocaine is a major
a threat to Alaskans. Many Drug Trafficking Organizations deal in both crack
and cocaine, obtaining it from the lower 48 states. It sells in Alaska at
greatly inflated prices due to the limited supply.
Though methamphetamine lab seizures are down, methamphetamine imported into Alaska continues to be available.
