The Arctic Circle is the southernmost latitude in the Northern Hemisphere at which the sun can remain continuously above or below the horizon for 24 hours (at the June solstice and December solstice respectively). To get there you take the infamous Ice Road Truckers route up the Dalton Highway which is the longest stretch of serviceless road in North America. North of Coldfoot, there is a 240-mile stretch of road with no gas stations, restaurants, hotels, or any other basic services until the Prudhoe Bay oilfield at Deadhorse. But get this… people LIVE up there! No phones, no internet (*gasp*), no mail service, not even electricity! Talk about getting away from it all!
