Winter Photography Adventure Travel in British Columbia, the Yukon and Alaska (There are 425 photos in this photo gallery.)
Canadian and Alaska Adventure Travel
This winter adventure trip took us from our new home, the wilderness community of
Port
McNeill on Vancouver Island, British
Columbia all the way north to Prudhoe Bay on the Arctic Ocean in Alaska. On this
trip which turned out to be real adventure travel, we drove close to 15,000 kms
over a period of over four weeks.
At times our adrenalin levels peaked at 120% as we drove along ice roads, got caught between snow drifts for hours on a remote arctic highway, and regulary slept in a pickup truck with only a standard canopy in -45 degree temperatures.
These challenges were rewarded by the beautiful winter scenery accompanied by the
Northern
Lights, and the extremely diverse and well adapted wildlife that dwell in this harsh environment.
