Continuing our journey northward, we cross the Alaska Range covered with fresh snow.
 
 
1. Exploring a side valley, not far from our camp.
 

 
 
2. The Richardson Highway passes through high mountains with difficult access.
 

 
 
3. Scree dusted with snow…
 

 
 
4. North slope of Alaska Range.
 

 
 
5. In the kitchen, we don’t let go: wild salmon with dill on a bed of spinach, all cooked over our campfire, hummm… 😉
 

 
 
6. After the show of the previous day, we watch the sky and a new northern light appears with the last light of the Sunset still pointing north…
 

 
 
7. We spend almost three hours outside despite a tempestuous wind and biting cold!
 

 
 
8. Paintings are constantly changing…
 

 
 
9. … sometimes very soft…
 

 
 
10. … sometimes very intense.
 

 
 
11. Sometimes the aurora crosses the sky with a truly amazing intensity, almost comparable to that of the moon.
 

 
 
12. We are almost hypnotized by the show…
 

 
 
13. … and the grandiose beauty.
 

 
 
14. After going late to bed, we entered the Dalton Highway the next day. The atmosphere was completely different than during my first visit, I feel like discovering other landscapes…
 

 
 
15. Here too the recent snow still covers the hills.
 

 
 
16. Taiga has completely changed color with warm tones adorning.
 

 
 
17. A picture of Grayling Lake I made during my first visit. If you want, you can compare: it’s the image # 17 ! 😉
 

 
 
18. VivaLaVida on the Dalton Highway.
 

 
 
19. Between the orange-red willows and bright yellow aspen and birch, the colors are incredibly saturated…
 

 
 
20. … and snow further strengthens those.
 

 
 
To be followed soon…
