Road Report Day 37 - Deadhorse, Alaska to Camp Coldfoot - Some Disassembly Required
I'm not feeling well today. I had trouble sleeping again last and woke up feeling very off and unmotivated. I had another episode of my guts letting loose yesterday. To top things off, while I didn't notice the smoke myself, the forest fire on the horizon has apparently been sending some smoke this way.

So I've decided to stay at the hotel here in Fairbanks ano ...Read More

I've never seen a glacier so I was thinking I'd like to. I was hanging out in the Coldfoot Camp bar wh ...Read More
Road Report Days 34, 35 - Fairbanks to Camp Coldfoot on the Dalton Highway.
I had left Tok and headed to Fairbanks. I needed to make time so I rarely stopped to shoot photos but as I was riding through the landscape here, which continued to be beautiful, it dawned on me that I have not often mentioned the horror show that's been unfolding on my helment and bike. Ever since I got into British Columbia, the bugs have just been horrific. I remember the mosquitos from the '92 trip, but this is much different. These beasts are HUGE. I don't know what kind of bugs they ...Read More
