Wiseman Tour
Tonight Vanessa and I went on the tour to Wiseman. Even though both of us have been to Wiseman with Teslin, we had never gone with the Northern Alaska Tour Company and figured we should take advantage of our ability to go on any of the tours for free. While we were there we walked to the cabin where Jack, a resident of Wiseman, has lived since 1971 (before the Dalton Highway even existed!). He told us all about how he makes a living in Wiseman, hunting and living off of the land. It was really interesting, and we even got to wear the stylish bug headnets while we walked around. It was really funny watching all of the other guests that came in from Fairbanks complain about the mosquitos; at least there is no Westnile or anything like that up here, so all we half to worry about is having itchy bug bites.
