               SUMMARY OF GROUND-BASED AURORAL ACTIVITY SIGHTINGS
               --------------------------------------------------

               (Sightings are preliminary and may be unverified)

0730 UTC - (N70.50 W153.75) - Kuparuk, Alaska 
           Comments: I'm in the Kuparuk field on the northslope. From 11:30 pm
           to 1:00 am AK time we had some very good and intense lights. Even
           some pink along the bottoms. I did get some decent pictures, but it
           was 64 below in the windchill so I gave up after anhour. Should be
           out again tonight. The bad thing about being this far north...most
           of the lights are directly overhead. And there are no mountains or
           trees to add in a picture!
