Thanks folks! The aurora is always a moving and awesome experience. We have the best shows in January, but it's usually cloudy, we've been lucky this winter :)

I lived in Soldotna for three + years and enjoyed its beauty very much and I'm very lucky to have a bush pilot son in Anch.,and a son that attends KPC so I get back up there a couple of times a year to view the most spectacular place on Earth.
I tell everyone I know they have to go and visit the true wilderness of the Great North.
Keep all the great photos coming!
