Considering Air Traffic Control Schools in Alaska?

You’ll see amazing things in Alaska no matter what time of year you visit for training. Glaciers, the Northern Lights and sunset at 10:00 p.m. are some of the unusual sights here.

A large portion of the state is surrounded by water. There are over 3,000 rivers and over 3 million lakes here. The Yukon River is 1,875 miles long. There are 39 mountain ranges.

If you like cold and snow this is the place to be in the winter. The average temperature in the winter is about 20 degrees. Fortunately it’s not winter all year long and there are plenty of things you can do indoors in the winter. You can visit museums, shop and eat.

The three largest cities in Alaska are Anchorage, Fairbanks and Juneau. They all have interesting places to visit.
Anchorage is almost in the center of the state. It has the sea one side and the mountains on the other. Furthering your education here will give you an opportunity to experience life in a big city surrounded by beautiful scenery.

During the summer months you can see a glacier up close. A bus tour will take you from Anchorage to the Portage Glacier. A one hour cruise on Portage Lake will bring you within 300 yards of this glacier. You can take a train trip to Talkeetna. This is the nearest town to Mount McKinley. You’ll get a close up view of the mountain as you stroll through this historic town.

You can learn about the state’s history at museums in Anchorage. The Museum of Natural History has historical and geological exhibits. You can learn about the state’s native people at the Native Heritage Center.
Fairbanks is further north than Anchorage. This is one of the best places to see the Northern Lights. Denali National Park and Preserve is a two hour drive or a four hour train trip from Fairbanks. You’ll see meadows, lakes and rivers. The park shuttle bus will take you on a tour where you can get a close look at moose, caribou and grizzly bears.

Juneau is east of Anchorage and you can’t get there by road. You’ll need to fly or take a boat. You can take your car on a ferry. A tram trip to the top of Mount Roberts near the port of Juneau will give you a panoramic view of the city. A boat trip around the harbor at certain times of year allows you to see whales up close. You’ll be able to take a city tour that goes through the historic part of the city, out to Mendenhall Glacier and into a salmon hatchery.

You’ll see sunlight between 16 and 21 hours a day from May through September. Over one million tourists visited the state during these months in 2009.
