The above photo was taken at noon of the Winter Solstice in ’98, as in 1898. P.S. Hunt arrived in Alaska that summer from San Jose, California. It would appear that Hunt named the cabin after his previous hometown.
Way to go Chicken!!

The Chicken, Alaska weather station continues to impress. -63F is the coldest I have ever experienced in Fairbanks.
It was -41F at the cabin on Tuesday morning.

Wow! Those temps. Eek! And, is it me or is WordPress getting busy again, now that a certain “micro-blogging” bluebird site is in its death throes? In either case, I’m happy to see it. Stay warm!

I hadn’t put those two together, but you may be right! Let’s hope so.
