Greetings from Indiana, Never in a million years will I ever forget all the beauty and most fabulous Adventure I experienced on this Dalton Highway and going over the ATIGUN Pass. I tried not to hurry along so I could soak up all the eye could hold and it is still far from full. I guess another trip is the only way to keep filling my vision with so much to see. I even stopped at the top on my motorcycle and walked around for an hour just to feel the air in my face and my feet on the ground. I really wanted to set up camp and spend a day or more and hike out for hours on end. I took a hundred pictures and they will never do justice. What a place to remember in a persons old age. Not there yet so look out Dead Horse, I`ll be back. I could type volumes but today just a note. I was there in 1996 June 21st at Prudhoe Bay and this is now 01/03/2007-- Next time I`ll climb to the top of the pass mountain. Maybe.!!!! Take care and Happy New Year to all. Write if you can.
