The lights of the aurora borealis appear frequently in the Fairbanks region of Alaska, with a growing number of Aurora Trackers in the area. A new video from Explore Fairbanks features five Fairbanks Aurora Trackers sharing their thoughts and photography on the northern lights.
Aurora season spans all four seasons and nine months in Fairbanks, running Aug. 21–April 21. Fairbanks is located directly under the Auroral Oval, a ring-shaped region. The area’s clear nights, occurrence frequency, low precipitation, distance from coastal areas and minimal light due to low population density all help contribute to the area’s reputation for northern lights viewing.
Aurora Trackers live for the chase, staying up all night, delving into science, finding their own viewing points and telling stories about what they’ve witnessed and photographed. Learn more of their stories in the new video.

Apr 14, 2021The Hamilton Hotel Review
The Hamilton Hotel, located steps from the White House, was the perfect place for a relaxing weekend getaway. Upon arrival, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful with a quick check-in process. The lobby was immaculate with shining marble flooring, velvet couches and an arched ceiling design that brought a sense of sophistication. For added security, the elevators are only accessible to those who have a key card to a guestroom.

Apr 7, 2021Nemacolin Review
Talk about a grand entrance! After driving across the state of Pennsylvania and spending the last 40 minutes of our journey in a snowstorm, Nemacolin’s The Chateau coming into view was a welcome and gorgeous sight. After stopping at a checkpoint where our temperatures were taken, we drove to the valet, where we were helped with our many bags (winter gear takes up a lot of luggage space!) and escorted into an equally gorgeous lobby, bedecked with red roses in a nod to Nemacolin’s recent gig as host venue for the latest season of The Bachelor. Given the late hour, the lobby was quiet and empty. We were offered Champagne at check-in and were quickly on our way to our guestroom.
