University of Alaska-Fairbanks

Everybody I've spoken to and anything I read about Fairbanks said that the museum was a major highlight...I personally found it quite small and disengaging, although I think if you watch one of the movies (IMAX?) available, you'll have a better experience. I had also already been to the native heritage museum in Barrow, AK which had similar information and relics/displays on native culture and wildlife etc. More on www.ajauntwithjoy.com

Lovely field after getting lost among the trails. I think they do plant research here?
