Rugged Beauty, Arctic National Wildlife Refuge
This past weekend I finally got around to revisiting some work from a couple years back when I was in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. The trip was fantastic and yielded an amazing amount of imagery. Whether you’re aware or not, the photograph in the header banner of this blog was taken in the Arctic Refuge and is part of the large set of photographs, several hundred, I reviewed and released this weekend.

With out hesitation I can say that I will return to the Arctic Refuge. The Arctic landscapes, wildlife, wildflowers and Alaskan villages & towns were incredibly fun to discover. The day I return is the day I’ll feel… at peace. I think the Arctic Refuge likely has had a greater impact on me that I’d have imagined.

Jim, this piece struck a chord with me. I haven’t been to the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, but I have spent a total of bit more than a month in Alaska. (A week or so backpacking and three weeks riding bicycles from Skagway to Anchorage. Really.)
I, too, really want to get back there, and plan to do so before too long. I spend weeks – sometimes a month or more – in California wilderness every year, but Alaska gets into your blood in a very different way.
Take care,
Dan
