3 ways to savor the summer solstice in Alaska

There is no sunlight to waste, so we will get right to the point. Here are three ways to do a little extra while you soak up some vitamin D:

• Take a leap into solstice with a six-day Solstice Boogie at Palmer’s Alaska Skydive Center. Enjoy thrilling helicopter jumps, glacier jumps and epic sightseeing flights.

• Enjoy a guided fishing trip under the midnight sun with Waterfall Resort, available during the property’s Summer Solstice Days.

• Visit the Kenai Peninsula’s Moose Pass Summer Solstice Festival or Fairbanks’ Midnight Sun Festival for family-friendly celebrations with live music and tasty local food.
