Things to do in Fairbanks, Alaska (AK): The Best Gear Rentals
Its far north location means Fairbanks gets the midnight sun in the summer and the northern lights during Aurora Season (August to April). These wonders define the city, along with winter activities, the gold rush past, Alaska Native heritage, a vibrant arts scene and “golden heart” hospitality. Enjoy dog mushing, panning for gold, floating the Chena River or visiting a museum. Add a nearby trip to a hot springs, Denali, the Arctic or the Interior. Fairbanks is the gateway to discovering Alaska.

This is our first time being at a place as cold as Fairbanks! We rent winter clothing from Alaska Elements and we were warm and comfortable during our entire stay! Thier gear hold up when we stood ourside for 1.5 hours at midnight watching northern lights, spent hours walking in snow, and sat at an unheated cabin for 3 hours on top of a hill waiting for the northern lights! We would not be able to enjoy our trip without their warm gear!

Rent high-end winter clothing that will keep you warm during the sub-zero weather. Our business came about when we realized that visitors wanted to enjoy the Northern Lights but oftentimes didn’t have the right clothing. We didn’t think it made sense that many visitors were told to “purchase” their clothing for a one time trip. Stay warm & enjoy Alaska's winters!
