## SUMMARY
[```Northern Lights```](https://www.travelalaska.com/Things-To-Do/Northern-Lights#:~:text=BEST%20TIME%20TO%20SEE%20THE,leads%20to%20darker%20night%20skies.)
> Alaska is one of the best places on earth to see the northern lights, also known as the aurora borealis – colorful bands of light that dance in the dark night sky. Travelers from all over the world come to Alaska to see this stunning display and take advantage of other winter experiences like snowmobiling, dog mushing, skiing, festivals, and sporting events.
### BEST TIME TO SEE THE NORTHERN LIGHTS IN ALASKA
> The northern lights occur in all four seasons of the year, although they are harder to see under the Midnight Sun. The best time to see the northern lights in Alaska is **between August and April**, when less daylight leads to darker night skies.
### HOW TO SEE THE NORTHERN LIGHTS IN ALASKA
> Towns and cities produce ambient light that interferes with aurora viewing, and while auroras are still visible from cities, it is best to view from the outskirts of town, or in an area known for clear, dark skies. While the northern lights can be seen anywhere in Alaska, they’re visible most often in **the Interior and Arctic regions**.
> [**Fairbanks**](#Fairbanks) is one of the best places to view the northern lights in Alaska due to its location, hours of darkness in the winter, auroral activity, and the amount of tours, activities, and accommodations dedicated to northern lights viewing. Other locations and towns in the Interior and Arctic regions offer more remote northern lights viewing opportunities including **Coldfoot, Utqiaġvik (Barrow), and Prudhoe Bay/Deadhorse**. Not planning on traveling that far north? The northern lights can be seen throughout the state, though your chances of seeing them reduce as you travel south.
> Northern lights tours are available in the Interior, Arctic, and Southcentral regions. **Tour guides** know the best spots for viewing and can take you off the beaten track to remote viewing locations with less ambient light. They offer single day tour options or you can increase your chances of viewing with multi-day overnight northern lights packages, which often include meals and overnight stays at unique, remote lodging specifically-designed for northern lights viewing. If you prefer to do it yourself, you can keep an eye on the **statewide aurora forecast** and the **Fairbanks aurora tracker**. Many Alaska hotels offer a northern lights wake-up call (upon request, of course) to wake visitors when the lights are out.

<details><summary>What to bring</summary>
> Winter in Alaska can be quite cold. Protect yourself against the winter elements by arriving for your tour fully prepared. Dressing in warm layers is highly recommended. This means having a thermal base layer (pants and long sleeve top), a mid-base layer which includes a fleece or hoodie, followed by an insulated winter jacket (preferably with a waterproof shell in case of snow). Insulated or fleece-lined snow pants are a must, along with insulated, waterproof winter boots. Wool socks, or perhaps two pairs of wool socks will keep your feet warm in the sub-zero temperatures. Don’t forget winter gloves or mittens, a warm hat, and a face/neck protector (this can be a lifesaver when the cold winter winds roll in); It can get very windy on the glacier, and protecting your face from the cold winds will ensure you don’t get frostbite. Sunglasses or ski goggles are encouraged as it can be very bright on the ice. Feel free to bring a backpack with water, snacks, and extra layers.

*发布于 2021-12-02 04:55*
感恩节来了一场六天五夜的Alaska Fairbanks极光之旅 踩了很多坑 挨了好几晚的冻
总结了以下追极光的方法💋
如何科学追极光
> 任何一种观测方式都不能确保一定会看到
总结chena山里> fairbanks市区; 花钱的> 不花钱的
通常连续四晚看不到的概率是3%
推荐app:
> Aurora forecast 或者my aurora forecast & alerts
KP指数大于3 说明今晚很活跃容易看到
结合云层情况 天空上是否有遮挡
一般10点到3点概率较高
如果你在fairbanks市内:
> 不差钱:找当地的导游一般$100/人 好处是有MPV/房车接送 导游帮忙盯着极光 只要在车里坐着睡觉就行 相对轻松舒适 不用研究动脑
省钱版:推荐cleary summit aurora viewing area和chena lake recreation area 观测点 离市区半小时高速 缺点是要自己盯着极光 车里等着又无聊又冷 还没有厕所 半夜自己开回家 危险而辛苦
> 升级版:ice fishing with aurora viewing 晚上一边冰钓一边等极光 $235/人 好处是你在室内钓鱼暖和不无聊 工作人员会帮你盯着极光 坏处是晚上鱼很少 基本钓了个寂寞
共同问题是有城市光污染 树林遮挡 极光偏小
如果你在 chena hot spring resort:
> 不差钱:aurora viewing tour $75/人 有履带车送你到山顶的yurt(类似大寨营)提供免费泡面和热可可 好处是远离城市 山顶360度无遮挡 缺点是深夜的山上冷到人麻了
省钱版:度假村自带免费极光观测室 一间带大玻璃的有暖气的房间 可以看后山头外有没有极光 缺点是视野有限 只能看到半边天
共同的优点是远离市区 星空清晰可见银河
我这样看到了极光
> 在chena的aurora viewing tour极为幸运地看到了大爆发 当日kp是4 观测条件excellent大约在凌晨一点到三点之间 肉眼极为清晰地看到了持续的大片极光 又粉又绿 整个天空在不停变化闪烁 显得自己与浩瀚宇宙相比非常渺小 还顺便收获了四颗流星

晚餐:Moose‘s Tooth Pub & Pizzeria
3⃣️🚄安克雷奇-费尔班克斯
> 极光号冬日列车周六北上周日南下,时长12小时,官网订票$219/人。

🔸【Fairbanks✈️Anchorage】
> 首选应该还是火车,沿途风景会很棒,但因为我们的行程安排赶不上火车所以坐了飞机:全程只要一个小时左右,但千万不要睡觉,往下看的景色太美了,尤其是快落地的时候。
🌊【Seward】
> seward离anchorage车程两个半小时左右,但冬天并不是去Seward最好的时候,不过沿途也是非常美的,左手悬崖,右手雪山。如果夏天去的话,可以出海观鲸,kayaking,还有出口冰川可以徒步,很推荐!
🏔️【Matanuska Glacier】
> Matanuska冰川绝对是冬天的Anchorage最大的亮点!可以直接在官网预约,离Anchorage downtown车程大概两个小时,100刀一位有专门的人带着徒步两个小时。他们会提供防滑链,刚开始走的时候还有点冷,不过走到后面出了汗还蛮热的,所以不需要穿的非常厚。冰川的景色真的太壮观了,时不时还能听到冰川下面水流的声音,冰川的裂缝处非常漂亮,像高迪的建筑,不知道他是否是因为看到过这样类似的景色而得到灵感。
🦀【美食】
> 海鲜吃起来!!!推荐两家我们去的餐厅: Glacier Brewhouse, Moose's tooth pub&pizza
