text: The forecast was for some active skies overnight with the Northern Lights and with the clear skies the past few days it was a must to go and check them out. Just after arriving to Mendenhall Glacier you could start to see them form in the sky however using a longer exposure they definitely do show up better with the camera. t was a chilly evening with the clear skies so after spending a little over an hour at the location I headed back to the warmth of the the car and home.
