False.

The figurative language and poetic elements in this stanza from the poem "An Alaskan Cruise" do not suggest that Alaska is an unpleasant place to visit. The stanza describes the plentiful land that is home to few people, and the speaker is focused on taking in the view of the harbor, which suggests a sense of awe and wonder. The line "my mind is blank except for whoopee" also suggests a sense of excitement or happiness, rather than negativity or unpleasantness.
