Things are starting to finally feel wild up here. After almost two weeks of not seeing any large wildlife, only tracks in the snow, this lady came by with her two calves yesterday afternoon. When I noticed her, she was about 5 feet from the window I was sitting by munching on some plants that the melted snow had exposed.  Super cool!

Every day here has been different, because of that, even more beautiful than the day before. No one day has been the same up here in Sheep Mountain, the light is never the same, the clouds are always different, the snow comes and go, it’s amazing how dynamic this landscape has been. Can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings!

Well, today marks the first week of our time here in Alaska. Hard to believe it’s only been a week since we left Portland Oregon, and our life there, behind. Excited to see what the coming weeks and months hold for us in our new Alaska home here in Sheep Mountain.

Reconnecting to something old and simple, so far, is feeling effortless. It feels wild out here, and in turn I think is awakening something I felt I had lost in the city.

Perhaps the biggest obstacle I face currently is striking the balance between unplugging out here and engaging in some of the things I love - namely, taking photographs.

Just in case you think you need a butch 4x4 overland vehicle to drive the Dalton highway … @outdoorx4 Overland Columnist Jonathan Hanson, credited with this photo, met Brian and his 82 @ferrariusa 308GTS at the Aurora Hotel in Deadhorse. Note the @pirelliusa Scorpion rally tires.
