Weather Deadhorse, AK
 
HI,

I will probably be the last one this season going there.

Have you checked the weather ?
Which site would you recommend ?

I go with

Wetter Deadhorse Airport Deadhorse - 14 Tage

This morning the forecast showed 8 Degrees in Deadhorse for MON and TUE, so the best it can be beg. of SEP.

Current plan:
6 SEP SAT Arrival Fairbank
7 SEP SUN arrival Cold Foot (400km)
8 SEP MON arrival Deadhorse (400km)
9 SEP TUE arrival Cold Foot (400km)
10 SEP WED arrival Fairbanks (400km)
Then have a break.

I will head to Fairbanks and wait a day or two if it is not possible, I go south.
Fallback solution is to go by car.

Share your thoughts.
Roland

Mission COmplete
 
... Did the Dalton HWY SUN 7SEP to WED10SEP....

what t say, LUCKY PUNCH, cold but sunny, astonishing view and the last artic tour to the purdahoe bay this season. the activity is only possible from spring onwards now.
Anyone thinking about Dalton HWY in SEP, check the local weather 3-4 days before and for Fairbanks, Coldfoot and Deadhorse, so you will see how it will be.

I checked with wetter.com: Wetter, Wettervorhersage, Wetterbericht, Reise, and it was quite precise what they forecasted.

Can be a desaster, or a lucky punch, Like i had.

Have fun, stay tuned !

Thank you in advance.
