Fairbanks, Alaska is the second largest city in Alaska. It is 358 miles north of Anchorage at the end of the Alaska Highway. Fairbanks is in Alaska's interior and centrally located and is an important city for the small villages all around Alaska.
Fairbanks has perhaps the largest range in its temperatures of any city in the United States. It can reach 60-70 degrees below zero in the winters and exprience 90 degree summers.
Fairbanks is a mere 188 miles south of the Arctic Circle. This results in very long summer days and very short winter days. The longest day of the year, at the summer solstice, truly makes Fairbanks the land of the midnight sun. Catch the local baseball team playing a game at midnight on June 21.
Fairbanks also is one of the best cities in the world to view the Aurora Borealis.

As always all good trips must come to an end. The hard part is turning the car around and the even harder part is holding off thinking of what you need to do for work the next day. So the best thing is to drive slower and take a few pics for your travBuddies............ sc
