Description: This is a picture of me touching the Arctic Ocean. The couple taking the picture were from Sweden. I would have never guessed I would have met a couple from Sweden in Deadhorse. It just seems unlikely! The water was thirty-five degrees Fahrenheit. One boy in his twenties jumped into the water for a minute.

Description: The picture shows the front of the Arctic Caribou Inn where I started the tour in the vehicle you see parked. All of the buildings in Prudhoe Bay/Deadhorse look the same. There are only two hotels - Arctic Caribou Inn (pictured) and Prudhoe Bay Hotel in the small area. There is one building which contains a general store, post office, movie rental business, and Napa Auto Store under the same roof. The airport exists in Deadhorse as well. These are the only buildings besides the oil industry that exist.

Description: This is a great view of the valley where we hiked. We hiked six miles in five hours. It seems slow, but the terrain was not easy at times. Plus, we stopped for a long lunch by the beautiful Atigun River. Then, we hunted for geodes, fossils, and flowers as well as photographed everything.
