Deering Revisited

I finally laid my hands on the few non-work-related photos Stephen took on his Deering trip. There are about 5. This one shows the most "detail".

This is a street (or I should say, THE street) in Deering, Alaska. So this is "how the eskimos live...". See those nice pre-fab igloos and the power and phone lines which they have a hard time burying in the permafrost....

This photo, as stamped, was taken on May 17th. Still plenty of snow around and the Kotzebue Sound was still completely frozen as you can see in the second photo. Not many actual cars or trucks in Deering. You can see to the right a 4-wheeler pulling a trailer. This is the airport shuttle.

This photo was taken just outside the City Office. (Frozen Sound in the background.)
