Wulvzwerx Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Greetings all, I have lived in the north most of my life. A long time rock/fossil collector. I grew up in the badlands of Alberta finding arrow heads and dino fossils and well lets face it, I never really grew up. These days I make jewelry from my finds in silver and gold, preserve fossil remains for the gold miners that dig them up. I do lapidary work and stone carving as well. On the side I make everything I need and live a self sustained life as much as possible. I look forward to refining my work through this forum, which at first glance seems I will be learning quite a lot! Thanks for having me. Oh, and that skill testing question was bugger!!

digit Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Whitehorse, one of my favorite spots on the planet! Visited their many years ago with my wife Tammy, her sister and her sister's husband (before they had kids and traveling was simpler). We stayed at a B&B out of town and visited in the dead of winter for the express purpose of trying to see the Aurora Borealis. We were lucky to have had a solar mass ejection on the first day there of three. By the second night (first was quite quiet) the charged particles had reached the magnetosphere and we were treated to a dazzling display for several hours. The greens were quite apparent to the naked eye (our eyes are well tuned to the green part of the spectrum) but the reds seemed faint or missing but showed up well in the photos from that night. You've got interesting things to see up there if you look up into the sky or down on the ground. Welcome to the forum. There is lots to learn here that should provide something to do on the long winter nights when the Northern Lights are not dancing outside your window. Cheers. -Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
