The Trans Alaska oil pipeline



Some trees near the Arctic Circle



The car we rented to get us to the Arctic Circle....if anyone is planning this, I recommend a truck.



The ONLY building between Fairbanks and the Arctic Circle...over 200 miles. It was an empty motel, an even emptier cafe, a tire repair shop, and most importantly they sell gas (you have to stop there, and they know it $2.50/gal) and they have a bathroom...more important to Michelle than it was to me.....I found plenty of trees along the way.



When we finally got to the Arctic Circle, this is all that was there



Well, this sign was there only...note the irony of this sign



A glacier south of Anchorage



Michelle in front of a waterfall we passed south of Anchorage



The mountains outside of Anchorage



More mountains



Still more mountains
