Land of the Midnight Sun

Posted on June 25, 2013 by Jo

We are not far enough north to actually see the sun at midnight, but spending the past week in northern British Columbia, the Yukon Territory, and Southeast Alaska in late June means that we have not actually witnessed any nighttime since early last week. The sun does go down, but we have gone to bed before it gets dark (or semi-dark) and gotten up long after the sun has come up.

Here are a few pictures of what late night in The Yukon Territory and Alaska looks like:

We have had fantastic weather as well, since we timed our arrival to coincide with a heat wave that is “baking” Alaska.
