Driving the Dalton Highway

My brother came to visit in July... we took a few days and a rental Ford Excursion (I don't think that car will ever be the same :-) and drove from Anchorage to Fairbanks, and then all the way north to Deadhorse. Amazing scenery...

This first few photos are of the Dalton Highway, driving through a burned-out area overgrown with fireweed:






The famous Arctic Circle sign; hard to believe we went another 300 miles NORTH of this point!


Below is a view of the middle of the Brooks Range, looking south from the top of Atigun Pass:
