The Arctic Brotherhood Blog: HIatus

HIatus

Sadly, there are factors now limiting my availability to blog although I've been uncovering some ground-breaking stuff about the Arctic Brotherhood. As it is summer, and summer people have infiltrated my fair city, my wifi connection is now inundated with summer people's laptops accessing the connection and is no longer available to me. I have internet on my phone for the moment but I can't get on and do much with it since it's not a smartphone (and smartphones are the devil). Also, 4 jobs in the summer prevent me from having much time to update the blog.

Regardless... I've found some really cool stuff about what happened to the AB after the 1909 schism. When I get another minute, I'll bring you all in on what's new with that. Until then... Email me if you want to know anything about the AB!

Welcome!

In February of 1898, eleven men began an organization that would come to be known as the Arctic Brotherhood. In its heyday the order had ten thousand members, spread out over thirty-two camps. By 1931, the organization was no more. This blog delves into the stories of the organization and its members, trying to keep alive a history that has for all intents and purposes been forgotten.

I'm Ashley and I spent six years living in Skagway, Alaska, where the Arctic Brotherhood held its first on-land meetings, home of AB Camp #1.

Now I, like so many AB members, have moved South. I live in southwest Wisconsin, where the winters are just about as harsh as they are in Skagway but where there's better cheese and beer to provide some warmth and insulation.
