Hotel · Fairbanks North Star Borough

@cntraveler

"Nestled into a boreal forest about 45 minutes outside of Fairbanks, the domed huts and stark landscape make Borealis Basecamp feel like a lunar colony. But, for that reason, it is a stellar location for aurora hunting—there's no light pollution to compete with the solar show. During the day, the lodge offers opportunities to explore its vast frozen backyard through dog sledding, snow machining (snowmobiling to Lower 48ers), and snowshoeing." - Bailey Berg
