DEADHORSE CAMP

Cook EXTREME arctic!!!

Don’t stop until you reach the top!!!

Live and work at the top of the world 
on Alaska's Arctic Coastal Plain!!!

THE REGION

Our longest winter night --- 63 days, 
23 hours, 40 minutes.

Nowhere are the extremes conditions, brought about by intense sunlight and 
darkness, on such vivid and stark display as the high arctic environment that 
is Alaska’s Arctic Coastal Plain.

Early-September --- extreme winter dark transforms the Arctic Coastal Plain 
into a vast white landscape that inspires awe and humility --- the WHITE season
 is a time when, and a place where, only the most adaptable of humans, plants 
and animals are able to sustain life. 

Late-May --- sunlight’s return is the catalyst for glimpses of brown that begin to 
punctuate the white and frozen landscape, and thus signaling the beginning of 
spring --- the BROWN season is a very short but welcome reminder that summer 
quickly approaches. 

Early-June --- the sun once again reigns supreme as life flourishes in summer’s 
24-hour arctic sunlight --- the GREEN season is a time of hurried excitement as 
all arctic life participates in a race against time to harvest nature’s summer 
abundance as a foreboding nine-month winter looms on time’s horizon. 
 
Late-August --- an increasingly absent sun leads to a quick arrival of fall --- the 
RED season sees a brilliant blanket of yellow, orange, and red pulled over the 
tundra just weeks before the landscape will be dressed in winter white once again.

The amazingly intense seasonal transitions make Alaska's Arctic Coastal Plain an 
icon of America's wilderness --- a place of simple splendor and passionate 
inspiration for those intrepid souls who choose to venture off-the-beaten-path to 
experience it. 

THE CAMP

Deadhorse camp is located at mile 413.6 of the Dalton Highway, at the northern 
terminus of the only road in the Western Hemisphere to reach the Arctic Ocean. 
Directly to the NORTH is the oil field services community of Deadhorse, the 
Prudhoe Bay oil fields, and the shores of the Arctic Ocean. The Sagavanirktok River 
runs a few hundred yards to the EAST, backdropped by a magnificent tundra/mountain 
view of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Far to the SOUTH are rolling foothills 
leading to the Brooks Mountain Range and the Gates of the Arctic National Park. 
A view to the WEST towards Barrow delivers the vast tundrascape of the 
Arctic Coastal Plain for as far as the eye can see. 

Deadhorse Camp offers camp-style accommodations in a snug 17-room camp with 
additional rooms available in adjacent skid-housing. With true-to-the-region 
accommodations, Deadhorse Camp has just what the adventure-seeker in this remote 
region is looking for --- a clean, comfortable place to stay accompanied by good food. 
In summer 2008, Deadhorse Camp will provide overnight accommodations and buffet 
meals for approx. 30-40 guests on a daily basis --- primarily composed of work crews.

Deadhorse Camp’s winter season begins 01 October 2008 and runs through 
15 February 2009. All successful employment candidates will ideally be available
