Swirling Above Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve

Swirling high above Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve in Alaska, the Northern Lights can be dizzying.

I have done two winter dog team trips into Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve, one along the Yukon River and the other into the headwaters of the Charley River with Dave Mahalik (supt.), the chief ranger and three local seasonal Rangers.  It is truly a magical land well worth the effort of seeing it in its winter garb.
