**Please note, GPS MAY NOT WORK. Make sure you are coming via the Elliott Highway (AK-2) NOT Parks Highway/Goldstream Rd/Sheep Creek/Spinach Creek Roads. If you go the wrong way, you will end up on a trail not a road! Follow our directions below **
1) Head North from Fairbanks on the Elliott/Steese Highway (AK-2). Ten miles outside of town, you will reach Fox, the junction of the Steese and the Elliot highways (AK-6 & AK-2). Go straight through Fox on AK-2 (turning right will take you up the Steese Highway (AK-6), turning left will take you to the Goldstream Valley).
2) 3.5 miles past Fox, at the top of a steep and windy hill, take a LEFT onto OLD MURPHY DOME ROAD.
3) Drive 7 miles down Old Murphy Dome Road and take a LEFT at the first street sign you see: HATTIE CREEK ROAD.
4) We are the FOURTH driveway on the RIGHT. We have a sign reading "Arctic Dog Adventure Co." at the bottom of the driveway. Drive up the driveway. Parking is on the right. If you miss the driveway, do NOT make a left hand turn into the drive -- this is a good way to get stuck. Go back up to the top of the hill to turn around in order to make the right hand turn into the drive.
