[ChineseSkiClub] Re: Alaska Cruise

Q&A:

Q - Can we see Aurora at the end of August at Fairbank?
The "Northern Lights", at their most dazzling from December to March
when nights are longest and the sky darkest, can usually be seen even
as far south as Juneau.
But it is very cold during those months.

A - Yes, I agree with you that the best time to see Aurora is mid
winter, while there will be nothing else to visit/see and nothing else
to do at that time. Why is this trip so special? It combines in one
trip everything that you can do and you want to do in Alaska. If you
go there in June and July, you won't be able to see aurora. If yo go
there in a full moon night, you won't see aurora. I have checked the
moon phase schedule and found the best shot is the time of this tour!
I even called some Alasaka's tour companies and confirmed that we
would have a great opportunity to see the aurora because of the total
days that we cover there. One more important thing is that next year
is the best year (11-year cycle) to see aurora.
