“This is an enjoyable intro to Fairbanks. Josh, our guide, has been in Alaska for five years and lives off the grid about 25 miles from Fairbanks. He clearly loves Alaska and his stories about building a cabin and surviving the first year made this a memorable day. The visit to the Museum of the North on campus of University of Alaska and the Alesyka Pipeline were the outstanding highlights. Go! You'll enjoy it.”
