People who don’t follow us on Twitter are often missing out on some really cool stuff. So…I thought it would be smart to take the most clicked tweets from the past month and post them here so blog readers can have a look too.
Most of the popular links lately have featured photos from Denali National Park or other wilderness areas near Fairbanks. We make a prime home-base for anyone who wants to get out and see some of the magnificent scenery nearby.

First Morris Thompson Exhibit Photos
September 21, 2009 | Tags: Alaska Native Culture, Photos, Wildlife
Every Fairbanks visitor should stop in at the Morris Thompson Cultural and Visitors Center at 101 Dunkel Street downtown. Not only is it the best place to find information on things to do and see around Fairbanks and Alaska’s Interior; it is also a place to experience a bit of the culture and natural beauty of the area within a series of world-class exhibits. These exhibits have recently been opened, but still have a long way to go before completion. We hope the photos below will give you a taste of what you may see when you arrive.
If you’d like to see how far the exhibits have come over the past few month, be sure to check out this video from July. If you indeed come to see us in person, be sure to pick up one of our just-released Winter Guides. You can also request one by mail in advance of your trip, or take a look at the filp-book style online version.
