Arctic Circle, AK

After a night in a parking lot campground and a hearty breakfast at Yukon River Camp we completed the long rough drive to the Arctic Circle today. Everything made it in good shape. The road is mostly a total disaster with trucks flying by at 60 mph. Not very tourist-friendly!

The mountain scenery is probably incredible but we can't see it through the smoke. Great views of the Alaska pipeline though, so Dave is very happy. Even better than waterfalls and glaciers! We have driven next to the pipeline which is mostly above ground since we left Fairbanks about 250 miles back. For those who don't know, Dave spent several years working on pipelines for Conoco.

Stopped by Fish Creek for some really great Grayling action. Best Grayling fishing so far.もっと詳しく
