Page 13 - 2018 ALASKA NORTHERN NIGHTS LIGHTS

We stayed out about an hour but then gave up. Gordon got us up a

little later because he thought the display might be "charging" up but it

stayed the same. We did take advantage of the warming hut (yurt) but

were disappointed when the stove was not even warm. But inside we

were out of the wind which was pretty cutting when it blew by!

nd
Gordon was not exactly jubilant with what we saw that 2 night, but it
was clear that he was very much relieved. At least, he could remind us

that we had actually seen the aurora borealis even if it was just "basic."

Must be hard on a group leader if the clients never see any aurora

display at all.

CHENA HOTSPRINGS RESORT

SECOND STOP: We were picked up by our van the next day for the

drive to our home base for the next three nights—The Chena Hot
Springs Lodge about another hour further northeast.
