I hope you do. It is a very moving experience. Lucky enough to have seen them twice up in Yellowknife.

Is there like a best Season or time to see them? Or is it going on all the time?

Lots of folks seem to have success at night, so I'd probably recommend that.
(Sorry, it was too easy, and no one else had grabbed it.)

Haha it was a good one. Now I know why I haven't seen any yet.

Late Fall to early Spring. I got lucky with a great green show in May, and again in August, but this time just white. Was passenger in a car with a moon roof, so just laid my seat back and enjoyed the show. These visits were 10 years apart.

Got it. Setup a 24 hour around the clock watch.

Most watches are set up to run 24 hours.

Is it as green with your naked eye?

The night I saw them, they were more vividly green than this, no blues, more emerald green I guess you'd call it. Someone left the bar, and came back in to tell us. Many of the people went out to watch, (and have a smoke). They looked like curtains and filled the whole sky.

Were your eyes well acclimated to the dark? I saw them a couple of times, grey wisps at first and then they turn greener as eyes acclimate to the dark. But I've never seen them he bright or extremely vivid green
