Janurary is the month Alaskans go to Mexico and Hawaii!
But, by February the sun has warmth and the days are growing long enough to
enjoy some time out on the trails.  By March, the long sunny days can give
you a suntan, with the snow, and the weather up in Fairbanks is
wonderful..we have our dog sled races and folks often run around in shirt
sleeves, altho it can still be below zero at night some days.  By March 21
we're even with everybody else in daylight and from then on the sun comes
earlier and earlier, with light all night by May through July.  so we have
lots of nice weather and plenty of sunlight for half the year! Temps can
get up to 90's in the summer for a few days, generally in the 60's and
70's, perfect for trail riding!

Jean in Fairbanks, Alaska, looking forward to Dec. 21 when we start gaining
our daylight back! +10F

wow Jean... with the temps and daylight hours (or should I say lack of)  when 
do you ever trail ride? Is it nice in summer??
I think it is freezing here and it is near 30 every day... BRR
