Navigating North of the Arctic Circle in Alaska with GAIA GPS

Get GAIA GPS for $16 (20% off via Adventure Alan)

Visit https://www.gaiagps.com/adventure_alan/ and turn your phone into the best hiking GPS!

See our post: GAIA GPS HIKING APP 2020 | THE BEST GETS BETTER

This video shows how we used GAIA GPS to navigate 10 days in the roadless/trailless Alaska’s Brooks Range. Includes what maps we used and why. And the Gates of the Arctic is just part of an Alaskan roadless and trailless wilderness so vast and devoid of humans that it’s almost incomprehensible. Your navigational tools & skills need to be up to the task!
