The cold weather is also very unpredictable so be prepared with warm boots and hats. We ask you to please bring snacks, and small cash. This is our gathering and we want you to feel welcome and become educated on our culture. Most people will arrive June 21st and leave June 25th. If you are coming from the States or southern Canada, you will probably want to fly to Fairbanks.
Arctic Village is a two hour flight by small plane.
There may be having a special fare for the gathering so it would be good to check. Baggage is limited to 40 lbs, but if you have extra weight you will have to pay excess baggage. We expect a lot of people, maybe up to 300 or more. Elders, and other who may need to, will be put up in houses in the village. The rest of us will camp out.
