Thanks for the tour of Alaska. Mighty fine page!!

Quyanapuk! which is "a big thanks" in the way my neighbors
would say it in Inupiaq.

Some day I'll add some more pictures, and finish the descriptions
of each of the North Slope villages. One other thing I should do
is add a URL for Barrow weather, as it is often just as interesting
as pictures. Right now, for example!

http://weather.noaa.gov/weather/current/PABR.html

Typical late-July/early-August day. Here's another URL that you
may also get a kick out of, as it shows where the Arctic ice
pack is.

We've had two boats show up off shore already, but as can be
seen in the satellite images, getting any farther east than
Barrow would be a bit difficult except for the one that was a
Coast Guard icebreaker. That ice will clear out by late
August and early September, and barges will be able to make
it to Prudhoe Bay which is 200 some miles east of here.
