Creator's Key Takeaways
We would definitely go back if the uh in the beginning of the cruise season or towards the end of the cruise season if the temperature was colder.
Definitely a place we would go back to and we would definitely recommend to everybody else.
It was about an hour and a half from Fairbanks itself. Uh not a bad road at all. Very well paved. No issues whatsoever.
We quite frankly weren't expecting the weather to be quite that warm, but as you see now, we are stepping outside, which normally would be icy in the winter time, but um it was not.
