Marty’s photo of the day #3986: When Deb and I canoed across the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, campsites became less and less desirable as we neared the Arctic Ocean.

Marty’s photo of the day #3902: A double rainbow in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. I shot this photo sometime in the middle of the night. This is as dark as it gets up there in late June.
Marty’s photo of the day #3832: Not all of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is this flat, but it gets like this as you move north and approach the Arctic Ocean. This untouched photo shows just how light it stays in late June. I shot it at 3:00 in the morning! Also note how far […]
Marty’s photo of the day #3824: Today’s photo is more educational than pretty. You are looking at permafrost bulging through the bank of the Jago River in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. This is just about the only way a person can see permafrost without digging.
