On March 11th I departed Umiat after 3 weeks and headed home to Anchorage via Deadhorse/Prudhoe Bay: “America’s Finest Oil Field.” I got to see our camp and project site from the air.

I saw the most incredible display of N. lights last night. Of course it comes with a price. I’m dragging this AM. I saw a whole spectrum of colors flickering and spiraling across the sky in rapid movement. Truly awesome!! I captured some of the reds and violets in some of my photos. I had to just stop and stare in amazement as I had never seen it like last night. The brilliant colors flickering across the entire sky lasted just a few minutes. Last night was the highlight for the trip-funwise. Definitely one of the most memorable experiences I have ever had!
Enjoy,
CS

Here are some shots from the last 24 hours here in Umiat, Alaska.
I spent some time chasing American foxes, literally. Its -35 F here this morning. Another day of blue skies and sunshine!

Here are some pics from the last few days. We have had good weather so we have been very productive. I havent seen any northern lights for a few days now. Temps have been warm for here (between -25 and 0). Lots of sun and blue skies.

I got lucky last night. The overcast skies opened up for about 20 minutes allowing me a brief op to snap a few shots before bed time.
