Itinerary

We start this activity based on weather and aurora forecasts. Each night pickup time is decided around 7pm, and is generally between 930-1130pm dependant on weather and the direction we will travel. It may be an earlier pickup if aurora data is great, or may be a later pickup to maximize your time out with the Aurora. This activity may be done as a chase, or may stop at a static location such as a cabin, all decided based on weather forecast for each given day.
