“Arctic Horses”

This photo was taken in June of 1995.  It is along the Dempster Highway about 100 miles south of the Arctic Circle a little bit after midnight.  The horses appeared to be strays as there was no signs of anyone living in the area.  The strange color in the sky was due to a large forest fire farther to the South.  Later on in my trip I would be stuck in Dawson for several hours because that forest fire had closed all roads out of town.
