Arctic Pictures

Some of our Arctic Pictures from the Canadian Arctic as well as from Alaska. (There are 245 photos in this photo gallery.)

In many minds, 'arctic' conjures up images of frozen white as far as the eye can see. These photos prove that the Arctic is alive with colors - ice hues of blues and greens, sunsets of the most brilliant reds, and skies dancing with light of the Aurora Borealis.


White plains and icy peaks are year-round realities for Northern climates, but don't let the stark landscape let you think there is no life to be found. Animals and people both thrive above the Arctic Circle. These photos are from Alaska and the Canadian North, show not just the geography, but arctic animals and culture of the North as well.


Inukshuks are an iconic symbol of the Arctic. Made of stone, these towers of rock approximate a human form and have been used by the Inuit people for centuries. They are markers along the length of Arctic trails for travelers to find their way. ...More information below photos...

Snow, of course, is a fact of life, but visitors can take it outside.
Snowmobiling, skiing, snowshoeing, dog-sledding, and ice fishing will guarantee a bit of winter fun.


In summer, some artifacts of the Arctic drift South in the form of towering icebergs. These massive pieces of ice break from Northern glaciers to float south on ocean currents to the coastal waters of Newfoundland and Labrador, bringing a taste of the arctic to those not willing or able to head North - far North - for a full Arctic experience.
