Default Alaska attractions

I have never been to Alaska and I would like to visit some of the popular Alaska attractions especially in the Barrow city. My travel is in mid December and I knew from many books that Barrow city is located in Arctic Circle, so is it advisable to visit its key attractions in December? Can some one help?

One of my friends has been moved to Barrow last year and we have visited his place last August. It was summer and we had many things to see and do. The weather was very pleasant and we enjoyed the northern lights. They were absolutely stunning, and we really amazed about it. December is a rainy month and you can try for the cruise trip. Barrow is populated by polar bears, whales, walrus, seals, and other mythic critters and we have seen many. The sightseeing places and food were also excellent.

Last December I went to Alaska with my college friends. Alaska has many attractions to visit and one among we have visited was the Inupiat Heritage Center and it celebrates the past and present-day life of the Inupiat Eskimo peoples of the North Slope. It is really a unique family vacation place. We have enjoyed the wildlife tour and took many wonderful photographs. Some nearby attractions are Bering Land Bridge National Preserve, Cape Krusenstern National Monument, Gates of the Arctic National Park & Preserve, Noatak National Preserve and Simon Paneak Memorial Museum.
