"I have spent five months, in one expedition from late May until October in the Arctic, in this region of Kotzebue, Kivalina, Point Hope and as far south as Buckland village on the Buckland river. Camping solo on beaches without any tracks of people or wheeled vehicles. It is a must for folks to get to such places and not for a short weekend trip, but a duration of a month at least. Experiencing this grand expanse of 'Nature' and more importantly to experience our 'self' as being 'part' of this country as we learn a 'hidden' side of our instincts that we 'never' will see in a city."
