Surrounded by the yellow hues of the Autumn colored Cottonwood trees, a moose antler totem is on display in the historic mining community of Wiseman in the Central Brooks Range, Alaska. The handcrafted totem of moose antlers is a great conversation piece when visiting this unique town located approximately 3 miles off the Dalton Highway.
Wiseman has a population of approximately 20 people, a beautiful town founded by gold miners who left the Slate Creek settlement around 1919. Wilderness is within steps away and most of the local residents rely on hunting as a source of food.
Around Wiseman, Alaska, visitors can enjoy the outdoor activities of hiking, river runs, bird watching, wildlife viewing, hunting, fishing, photography and the magical show put on by the Aurora borealis as they dance across the Alaskan sky. The fall brings in magnificent hues as the landscape changes and winter offers visitors to Wiseman great skiing, snowshoeing and dog mushing.
Wiseman is located about 60 miles north of the Arctic Circle, bordered by the Brooks mountain range and is a short distance from the Gates of the Arctic National Park and the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
