Hurry Up & Wait

Hoping to fly out of Kaktovik this afternoon, to Deadhorse in Prudhoe Bay, then drive 5-ish hours to Wiseman.
Hopefully we'll see some aurora.
It's looking good for going but the weather can change so quickly. We've been on standby for 8 hours!
This view is from the Waldo Arms, looking towards the airport strip.
