So-get ready for a wild ride from Fairbanks down the Dalton Highway to the Arctic Circle Sign! Yeah-that's pretty much it. But-for bragging rights you gotta do it if you're here. After all you'll never be closer. So be prepared for about a 1230 pickup and then hit the road. There are plenty of stops along the way to stretch your legs, read about the pipeline or stopping at the Yukon River Camp. He's on the lookout for anything and we managed to spot a lynx jumping across the highway. Anyhow's the trip is long, there are a lot of get bundled up, jump out, get back in, unbundle, repeat. But-our driver/guide was Aaron. He's a great guy-and a secret Aurora Borealis seeker society member. Seriously-we stopped, he looked at the sky and said "I see potential" And an hour later we had dancing light shows going crazy. Sometimes you get the Northern Lights, sometimes you don't. It is a show sponsored by Mother Nature. They provided SubWay sandwiches for the day trip. We were dropped off back at our hotel at 3:15am. Oh yeah-when you see the gas gauge hit empty, don't worry-there's a 5-gallon jerry can for reserve.

Thank you Aaron, our tour guide for the arctic circle tour. He is a true local tour guide with lots of interesting stories and sense of humor. The trip lasted more than 15 hours from the time we were picked up and we were brought back to the hotel safe and sound. Though the aurora activity wasn't strong enough to be seen by naked eyes, Aaron was still able to spot out where they were hiding, and I captured some shadow of the aurora by camera. He gave us options of where we could go and what we could do to see the aurora and waited for us for as long as we would like to stay. I would like to come back soon and see some real northern lights with my eyes next time.
