Prudhoe Bay, Alaska


My brother, Terry, works at Prudhoe Bay, Alaska and sent me this image that one of his co-workers took. During some of our conversations, he has described the beauty of the landscape as well as the harsh conditions he has to deal with. With an image like this, it was difficult for me to visualize his statements. I did some research and found this YouTube video verifying his description of the area.


It is a very harsh and dangerous environment in the winter with temps reaching way down into the negative figures. However, it matches the harshness with magnificent beauty in the spring and summer months.
