Winterfest 2008

We are hosting the Winterfest 2008 in Haines, Alaska. Haines is located 70 miles north of Alaska's capital city, Juneau. Flights are available daily to Juneau from Seattle or Anchorage. The Alaska Marine Highway System serves Haines with regular ferry service from Juneau through the winter. Haines can also be reached by road from Anchorage, Fairbanks, or points south via Canada. Rental cars are available at the Haines Airport through Priceline at rentalcars.priceline.com/car-rentals/haines-airport.html. Expect harsh winter-driving conditions. We highly recommend an all-wheel drive or 4-wheel drive vehicle with all-weather tires.
