In answer to your question, the temperature was all over the place. One afternoon we had specks of snow falling. Other days we hiked in shorts, and swam in the cold arctic waters. In general, it tended to be pretty dry climate, warm in the days (if it was sunny - if the clouds rolled in the temperature would drop retty quickly), and cool at night - maybe 45degF. We actually got super lucky with the weather on this trip .. it was easily the best weather I had all that summer in Alaska. Thanks for the kind words about the photo. I'll try to dig up a few more. Oh, and thanks to Mike ..he's an awesome photographer hmself! Cheers Carl Hey Photo Buffet,

It's great being able to read details about a photo shoot without leaving home. You didn't mention the temperature; was it cold there? What an amazing sight! You've captured the essence of that place, and you're right--it ought to strengthen the argument against opening the region up to drilling. It looks so pristine and undisturbed. Wow. Thanks for the photo. I'm looking forward to exploring your site in more depth. (Mike @MacroArtInNature has a link on his site, and wrote a nice tribute to your work.)
