Kotzebue Alaska as viewed from the hill above town. Stitched from 27 hand held frames shot in portrait orientation. Note the occasional "shivering artifact". Have fun searching for the third dog sled team.

A Levitation Delta kite lofted a Canon S95 on a KAP rig over the site of this Nearbynature Gigapan: gigapan.org/gigapans/80659/. A snapshot shows the exact location occupied by the gigapan imager. Wind speed varied enough that the rig rose and fell constantly as the AuRiCo controller snapped photos in a diffe...

Near Fairbanks Alaska, climatic conditions above an elevation of 3000 feet limit tree growth, so higher terrain supports treeless tundra vegetation. Near the tor-like outcrops of metasandstone (the Fairbanks Schist), thin soil supports a dry tundra dominated by mountain avens with few shrubs more than a few inches tall...

These family housing units for the Maniilaq Health Center are literally on the edge of town. Beyond is the vast Arctic tundra, which in winter is a formidable, snowy, treeless, windswept wilderness. On this particular day, I saw a moose on one of the snow banks by the building on the left. You can see his escort out o...

It is the end of summer, and in some ways Kotzebue is like other cities in the Northern Hemisphere. The tundra is changing its lush green cover to fiery shades of yellow, orange and red. We are harvesting local fruits. In our case, it's time for the last of the blueberries and the first of the cranberries. The waterfow...

When you mention Alaska and energy, most people think of oil, and they think of the pipeline that crosses Alaska from Prudoe Bay to Valdez. Folks ask me how much oil costs here, thinking that it costs a lot less than in other states like New York or Virginia. They are surprised when I tell them that although Kotzebue ...

The City of Kiana which was incorporated in 1964, is found on the Alaska map where the Kobuk and the Squirrel Rivers meet, just about 57 miles east of Kotzebue. In the last census, the population was 399. In this photograph, we see the front of the clinic on the left and the school on the right. Kiana also has city o...

This is the arrival of the morning Bering Air flight from Kotzebue to Selawik Alaska. Selawik is a Inupiat village of about 1000 people who are isolated from the rest of the world by hundreds of miles of roadless tundra. Airplanes connect Selawik to surrounding villages year-round, but there are seasonal alternatives ...
