Three Arctic Fellows ventured into the heart of the American Arctic near Utqiagvik, Alaska, January 2025. The trip was part of the Ted Stevens Center for Arctic Security Studies Arctic Fellowship Program’s Arctic Field Study and Orientation. A key component of the trip was a tour of the Point Barrow Long Range Radar Site, a crucial element of the Distant Early Warning Line and NORAD’s mission. Through site visits, local engagements, and direct exposure to extreme winter environments, participants gained deeper insight into the region’s operational challenges and security considerations.
