Chena Hot Springs: Northern Lights, Sustainability and Fresh Vegetables in Alaskan Winter
We spent a couple of days in a magical place - Chena Hot Springs, where we soaked in hot springs, watched northern lights, and enjoyed fresh vegetables from hot spring-powered greenhouse.
The Chena Hot Springs Resort is a very unique place. We were especially amazed by their journey towards self sufficiency. With geothermal electricity generation, hot spring powered green house and indoor heating, they have created a small oasis surrounded by frigid cold.

We spent 2 nights there and both nights we saw the northern lights.
Can we take our own towel? Or do we need to use the ones from the facility?

If you stay at the resort overnight the towels are free, otherwise you can borrow theirs for $5. I haven't seen any signs prohibiting bringing your own towel. There is also nobody standing between lockers and the pool to stop you.
What kind of camera did you take pic of the northern lights with?

It is iPhone 13 Pro handheld. I used DJI OM 5 to reduce shakiness a bit on a couple of shots. All photos in the video were shot using the wide-angle lens (the middle one, 5.7mm, 26mm equivalent). Ultra-wide angle shots didn't work out unfortunately.
when did you go?
