What was the embarrassing period in Alaska like?
Alaska is the largest state in the United States, located in the northwest of the United States. Its climate is very cold. The long winter and short summer every year make people enjoy the wonderful winter scenery, but they also suffer from severe cold and long discomfort. Especially in the "embarrassing period", it is even more disturbing. So, what is the "awkward period" in Alaska?
1, travel awkward period
For tourists, the embarrassing period in Alaska generally refers to two time periods: from the end of May to June and from the end of September to the beginning of June 10. During these two periods, many scenic spots and tourist attractions were not ready to open. For example, tourist flights in the Arctic Circle will stop in early spring and late autumn, with low river level and long hiking routes. Therefore, if you want to come to Alaska during these two periods, it is recommended to arrange your itinerary in advance and come in the tourist season to better appreciate the beautiful scenery of Alaska.
2. Awkward weather period
In addition to the embarrassing period of tourism, Alaska also has a unique embarrassing period of weather. It is famous for its extremely low temperature all year round. Winter lasts for several months, and summer is short and refreshing. The weather embarrassing period refers to spring and autumn, from mid-April to the end of May, and from mid-September to 10. During this period, the weather is very unstable and changeable, sometimes it rains and sometimes it blows. So if you want to visit Alaska during this time, you must pay attention to the changes of weather and temperature and be prepared for cold and sun protection.
3. The embarrassing period of resources
In Alaska, because of the special natural environment, there is also an embarrassing period of resources. Alaska is the northernmost state in the United States, which lacks producing areas and local agriculture, resulting in higher prices of vegetables and fruits in winter. Therefore, during this period, people try to harvest a lot of fruits and vegetables in summer for the convenience of eating in winter. In addition, due to Alaska's island and seasonal skiing tourism, many suppliers and enterprises close down in winter and shift their focus to summer economic activities, which may bring some inconvenience to life and consumption.
4. Traffic embarrassment period
Because Alaska's geographical location is very remote, the transportation system in Alaska also has awkward periods. Due to the limitation of roads, except railways, traffic communities are easily affected by weather and seasonality. Especially at the turn of winter and spring and autumn and winter, snow and ice may lead to road closure and affect air transport and maritime traffic. Therefore, during this period, we should pay special attention to traffic changes and make travel plans in advance.
In a word, the embarrassing period in Alaska is one of the problems that every traveler must consider. It is necessary to arrange the trip in advance and calculate the weather factors in order to better enjoy the unique and rare experience from this beautiful state.
