Fairbanks | Alaska | A Winter Adventure
8 days with a rental car exploring the Fairbanks area. Our trip was March 23rd-30th 2019. Some places visited: Fountainhead Antique Auto Museum, dog sledding with Black Spruce Dog Sledding, Running Reindeer Ranch, Aurora Ice Museum, Museum of the North, Pioneer Park, Tanana Valley Railroad Museum, Pioneer Air Museum, Denali National Park (we could only go the first 3 miles into the park, as the road is closed in the winter season, we did not see Mt Denali), Silver Gulch Brewery- the Northern most brewery in North America, Creamer's Field, Morris Thompson Cultural and Visitor's Center, we rented snowshoes from Alaska Element, Santa Claus House in North Pole, the world's largest Santa statue, Fairbanks Community Museum, Chena Hot Springs (we opted to not get in as it was very crowded), Ice Alaska - world's ice carving championships at Tanana Valley State Fairgrounds- we arrived on the last day it was open so the ice statues were pretty melted, Alaska Pipeline Viewing Point, snowmobiling with Rod's Alaskan Guide Service. Only one night of our trip had a high rating for Aurora activity but it was very cloudy, so we could not see the Northern Lights :( :( It's ok, we got to see them in Iceland!

Sliding at the Ice park in Fairbanks, Alaska.
We live in Fairbanks Alaska and love to go on adventures. That's how my daughter got the nickname Crazy boo boos. In this video we are at the ice park going down slides carved from ice.
If you like the quality of this video, I shot it with my HD action camera that can be mounted to any helmet. Visit crazybooboos.com to purchase on of these single unit, simple to use, HD camera.
In this video I used and elastic webbing strap to put it on my head and use it hands free since I wasnt' wearing a helmet to go sledding. (It wasn't that dangerous. Hahaha)

Fairbanks, Alaska
Recorded June 13-17, 2000. Fairbanks is the largest city in the Interior region of Alaska, and second largest in the state behind Anchorage. According to 2007 Census Bureau estimates, the population of the city is 34,540. The video begins in downtown Fairbanks on the Bridge of Flags over the Chena River. I then spend some time at Golden Heart Plaza, the focal point of which is Malcom Alexander's statue Unknown First Family which is dedicated to all Families past, present and future, and to the indomitable spirit of the people of Alaska's Interior. Next I drive north of the city and view the Alaska Pipeline and Gold Dredge No. 8. The video concludes with a short tour of Alaskaland.

Big Dipper Ice Rink Resurfacing - Alaska Ice Dragon
The Alaska Ice Dragon is a portable, propane-fired ice rink resurfacer. This is the Big Dipper's indoor rink in Fairbanks, AK.

More info at
Facts about the Ice Dragon:
- The resurfacer burns propane to melt a thin layer of the rink surface. The water flows into cracks and scrapes in the ice, then refreezes into a smooth surface
- 1 gallon of propane will melt 76 gallons of ice
- It's lightweight, compact, and easily transported in a car or truck
- It's maintenance-free, and simple to use
- It resurfaces over 10,000 ft^2 (930 m^2) per hour unless the rink has major damage
- The resurfacer functions down to -25°F (-30°C)
- It burns 2 gallons (7.5 liters) of propane per hour
- It's scalable to arbitrary widths
- It's immune to freezing temperatures (no water valves or hoses) and can be stored outside
- It's perfect for ponds and lakes with weight limitations
- It avoids ice thickening on indoor rinks and does not affect rink flatness
