ABOUT
Utqiagvik Store & Community
Utqiagvik, formerly known as Barrow, is the northernmost city in the United States and is located on the Arctic Ocean. In Utqiagvik, Alaska's northernmost town, residents experience 67 days of darkness during winter but are rewarded in the summer with over 80 days of continuous daylight under the midnight sun. The Inupiat people have lived here for thousands of years, relying on whaling, fishing, and hunting for survival. Whaling remains a cornerstone of Utqiagvik’s culture and subsistence lifestyle.
