Alaska may be a bit more difficult to reach, but it offers unique picturesque snowscapes. See such unforgettable ranges as the beautiful Brooks Range. Both the striking Chugach National Forest and Tongass National Forest are memorable no matter what time of the year you choose to visit them.
Indeed, they demonstrate the 49th state’s versatility of beauty. Let’s not forget that if you plan your visit carefully, you also could very well witness the world-famous Aurora Borealis, it’s a wonderful natural light show. As previously reported, Visit from August into May, when the lights are the most visible.
The Northern Lights become even more intense between the hours of 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. Other highlights here include the Arctic Circle, the Kenai Fjords National Park, the Alaska Native Heritage Center, Anchorage, and Denali National Park and Preserve. Go whale-watching as well.
