All the way up at 71 degrees north, just inside the Arctic Circle lies a northward projecting point and an adjoining town. Formerly known as Barrow, the native Inupiat people have long known it as Utqiagvik, which is often translated as “the place where Snowy Owls are hunted.” Famous as a place where all four eider species can be seen in a single day, it is also a great location for vagrant birds from eastern Russia, and a fabulous spot for breeding shorebirds. Lucky observers at times get to see Polar Bear here. We will spend three nights and parts of four days exploring this unique town and its outskirts, smack in the middle of the arctic wilderness.
