This discussion is about the Atigun River

This view of the pipeline, the Atigun River, and an impressive sunset/rise was one of my first views of the North Slope as I came through Atigun Pass in the middle of the night. From the Atigun River in Alaska. From the Atigun River in Alaska. From the Atigun River in Alaska.

Posts: 2		Hello Jason,
Just wondering if you floated the Antigun to the Sag and then back to the Highway or did you hike in from the road to get those awesome photos?

My Atigun photos were all taken very close to the road, or from the road in some cases. That float is reportedly a really dangerous one, except for whitewater experts, and even then ideally with a partner. I have done some hiking around that general area, mostly for hunting, and it's fantastic once mosquito season subsides.
