The Fur Rendezvous Festival held in late February or early March dates back to the early 1900s when trappers and miners came back from the wilderness to trade, socialize and compete in survival-type games. The event has been updated somewhat, and now those games consist of a weight pull, sled dog races, snowshoe softball games, ice sculpture competitions and lots more. There's also the popular Miners and Trappers costume ball, so make plans to be a part of this fun, week-long event.

Instead of going to a movie and then having a couple of drinks afterward, why not do both at the same time? You can do just that on a date at the Beartooth Theatre Pub.The wide-ranging menu includes pizza, tacos, subs and other munchies as well as a fully-stocked bar. Enjoy various movies as you have your meal in a relaxed, fun atmosphere that is truly one of Anchorage's most unique places to relax with your special someone.

The Alaska Railroad Corporation is a great starting point for your journey. Alaska Railroad is the most scenic way to enjoy the 500 miles that stretch from Seward to Fairbanks up north. Buy your tickets for pre-planned tours or maybe customize your trip through your travel agent. Either way, before you get on board, check out the historic photos and other attractions and artifacts that are on display in the Depot. And don't forget to get a look outside at an authentic totem pole and a locomotive built in 1907.
