I got to fly up there in 1999 while working on an IT outsourcing bid for one of the oil companies. I took tons of pictures - I really need to find them and get them digitized.
You better come back with bad-ass snowcone making abilities.
(I’m jealous - I’d love to work up there for a time to see what its like).

My hubby just got a job welding on north slope. Now, here’s some things they don’t tell you. First, the baggage fees on airlines 200 bucks and they don’t take cash. another 100 for fees on alaskian or ERA air going up to deadhorse with luggage. They paid for flight and hotel and you buy your own food. so, far the company and job is great. friendly people. two men to a room. I work days. they do have a night shift. doing 6/2 wks off. let you know how the first 6 weeks go. MB
Hmmm.
In the first quote she was talking about her husband’s job. I think she meant to say, “he works days.” Nice detective work though.
