D & D Nails & Tanning

Whether you are a boat owner looking to light out or just enjoy relaxing outdoors by the water, you will find the natural solace of the Fortymile National Wild and Scenic River simply irresistible. This is an extensive network of creeks and rivers in east-central Alaska. Interestingly, 392 miles of the river have been given a National Wild and Scenic Recreational River designation. Boaters have many choices and routes available for recreational trips that, despite being different routes, all offer a chance to enjoy the area's breathtaking scenery.

Whoever says that history isn't dramatic has never set foot in the Pioneer Museum and The Big Stampede in Fairbanks. This is a truly unique venue that spotlights various aspects of life in what was once frontier Alaska. See where Sourdoughs carved their means of livelihood in unexpected places throughout the cold wilderness. In addition to seeing genuine tools and articles used to accomplish daily activities, there is also the Big Stampede Show that displays the dramas and victories of what life was like on the Gold Rush trails.

If you are visiting Alaska, one thing that will strike you about the whole experience is how genuine both the people and the surroundings are. So, if you are thinking of purchasing a souvenir for yourself or a friend, you want to make sure that the item is just as genuine as the place it comes from. That is what makes the Knotty Shop so special. Not only do they offer an extensive selection of all-Alaskan made gifts, it is also a wildlife museum, a gun collection and ice cream shop all in one convenient and very entertaining place.

Tradition and nature come together in the best possible way at Fairbanks' Harding Lake State Recreation Area. This attraction has proudly been offering excellent outdoor fun and family-friendly facilities since opening back in 1967. During that time, the area has built up an impressive reputation as a true mainstay in the community. Offering over 90 campsites, the area also offers fun activities like fishing, swimming and hiking as well as such comforts like bathrooms, clearly marked trails and other conveniences designed to make your camping trip the best it can possibly be.
