Iditarod & Northern Lights Tour
Every March we visit the beautiful town of Talkeetna, which was the model for Cicely, Alaska—the quirky little town featured in the TV show “Northern Exposure.” If that’s not true, it could have been. Talkeetna’s entire downtown area is listed on the Register of Historic Places. Its wilderness location at the base of Mt. McKinley (aka Mt. Denali) and at the confluence of three wild rivers also makes it a center for outdoor enthusiasts, climbers, and tourists of all descriptions.
Talkeetna is remote—you don’t accidentally stumble across it. From Anchorage by road, it’s about 115 miles north on the Parks Highway and then another 14 miles down the (paved) Talkeetna Spur Road. It is also a scheduled stop on the Alaska Railroad, about 80 miles up-track from Anchorage.
Every March we travel to this quaint little town and enjoy all the winter activities this area has to offer, including great vistas and good times with the locals.
