You may see snowy owls, eider ducks and others of the 230 bird species which summer here. Touch the Arctic Ocean or if you are really brave you can stick you toes in. Walk on tundra and permafrost. Stand in a whale bone arch and inside the skeletal jaws of a bowhead whale on the shore of the Arctic Ocean. Learn about the original village site mounds, which have been dated to 1200 A.D. Travel to the northern-most road accessible point in North America. Take part in traditional Inupiat dancing and see other demonstrations including a blanket toss. Time to shop for local arts and crafts will follow at the new Inupiat Heritage Center and Museum. Overnight at the Top of the World hotel. Dinner will be on your own.
