    Pictures from the Arctic Circle...

    Sorry about the delay. I've been pretty darn busy the last few days and I'm just getting around to these. Oh and tomorrow is our trip to Denali...more pics to follow!


    Well first is the Chukchi Sea on June 4, 2005. The ice floe is still hanging around even though the air temps are in the mid-50°F's. Out about a ¼ mile are seals out the wazoo, but the buggers blend in.


    Of course we have the "beach"


    More "cool" pictures.


    And one last one from the Port Dock.

    The tundra is greening and flowering up too. It will even be prettier in another couple of weeks.





    As with all of my pics if anybody is interested in the much larger versions let me know and I'll send them along.
    I only post using 100% recycled electrons!!!

    Stay on the bomb run, boys. I'm going to get them doors open if it hair lips everybody on Bear Creek.

    What is a Wazoo?



    Beautiful pics Major Sir, Cold but stunning. I don't do winter but if it was warm I would love to see all that IRL.

    There certainly is an austere beauty to those shots.

    Breath-taking.
    I didn't surrender, but they took my horse and made him surrender. They have him pulling a wagon up in Kansas I bet.
