What September feels like
That first snow line on the Chugach is called termination dust, and it means the season is over. The aurora becomes possible again on clear nights, and most of the summer operators start shutting down in the second half of the month.
Rain arrives about 8 days of the month, so keep one flexible day in your plans.
