Pretty boy!
@Why-Me
Working near Bevercreek, Yukon one summer just off the Al-Can watching cars and trucks go by headed North as I was waiting for the Heli to pick me up and drop me off at work. My son's and I watched a Cadillac pulling a trailer moving way to fast headed for a frost heave. We watched the trailer and car get airborne followed by a spectacular landing including sparks and lots of over correction. I was holding my sides laughing so hard...one should be very careful of the frost heaves on the Al-Can highway! At least we did not have to respond with the Heli and transport Ma and Pa Kettle to the hospital in Fairbanks (several hours away). Be careful out there and enjoy the ride!
Whatever you want to use is fine with me!
I am running that same light temporarily. It's doing pretty well. It's good enough to get growth out of my lps. I think my zoas dont like the spectrum. If I turn up the lights they close up halfway through the day, and when I turned them down they started to brown out a bit.Oh, her skimmer came in! Bubble Magus C3.5. It's the only one we that would fit in the space I decided to use for the skimmer, without costing an exorbitant amount. The larger chamber in the back will be the fuge, with dragons breath and ulva. That way I can recycle nutrients some instead of just throwing out good angelfish food.
Oh and I got her a cheap Aqua Knight light so the she can enjoy it some, and to the fish have a proper day/night cycle. I'll throw it over a nano or something when we get better lights. I will say, it's a lot brighter than I thought it would be.
I think I have a few pictures... hang on.
Pre diatom algae bloom
Bi color angel, had to sneak from the door. They still hide when you walk up. Also, diatoms.
Skimmer!, gotta figure out some way to quiet it down. No rubber feet on the pump so the vibration is a bit much...
Carry Jungle juice for the mosquitoes and white socks. Bring netting and be prepared to wear long sleeves in the summer. If they are prone to hiking they might need knee high boots like muck boots cause the areas are very marsh like. Get bear spray and keep it on you at all times along with a whistle to call the bears to lunch...they like the flavor of bear spray it gives the humans a little kick as they chow down. LOLI’m sending one of my residents up there soon to do “remote” medicine any tips?
carry a gun
Where at? And where is she headed?She is a pistol packing momma but she knows her way around a rifle too. I was there in the military for a while

Honestly it is one of the most remote parts of the world and in most cases you are outside the golden hour if injured. Bevercreek is a small spot on the Al-Can just short of the US border. Google Earth the border crossing and you can see the bourdry line running north and south. I surveyed 53 miles from the crossing both north and south. You will be able to see the 20' wide line I surveyed and my boys worked the crew that cut the line. Incredible experience and you could easily die within site of the highway and never make it there in time due to the tussocks grass and water table.
If they are on the Canadian side you can only carry a rifle or shotgun with slugs for the bears...Canada does not allow hand guns at least not on our crews.
Where exactly are your residents headed?

They will be stationed in Fairbanks but will be working outside of Delta Junction. I teach rural medicine at the medical school and the wilderness and remote medicine/survival courses. Sort of a combo of my military, veterinary and medical careers all in one.
But I’d like to hear what you do and what your adventures were.
