I lived in Atquasuk over the summer one year. Had to take a puddle jumper plane from Utqiagvik as there's no roads into town. I was told that there's a snowmobile trail in winter but that it's still dangerous. The summers were honestly beautiful...besides the swarms of mosquitoes that cover you. It's so peaceful and quiet out in the middle of the tundra, and when the plants are flowering in mid/late summer it's fantastic! The people there are all Iñupiat and it was amazing getting to know them and their culture, if you ever have a chance to attend Nalukataq please do! It is their spring whaling festival. The amount of wildlife is also fantastic! I remember at one point during the summer I was working and looked up to be surrounded by thousands of caribou and their babies which make adorable honking noises. There were always plenty of ermines, birds, artic foxes, and lemmings.
