Above the Arctic Circle: Packrafting the Alatna was a 3 week expedition in the Northern Alaska wilderness funded by a Ritt Kellog Expedition Grant. The summer after graduating from Colorado College, Lia Kelly, Jack Griffith, Sam Asher, and I took off into Gates of the Arctic National Park--only accessible by bush plane--to begin our 200+ mile Journey from the headwaters to the mouth of the Alatna River.
