Seeing the Northern Lights is a thrilling experience! The Auroras (Northern Lights) are visible in Alberta, Canada from September to April with the best viewing typically in November to March.
Download an Aurora Borealis App and when you get an alert on your mobile phone, head out to a backroad where it is nice and dark away from city lights. Park in a safe place off the road and turn off your headlights. Your phones camera will pick up the Northern Lights before your naked eye will but once you can see some colors through your phone, be patient and as the KP increases you will be able to see Lady Aurora dance with just your eyes.
The timing of Auroras can vary but usually she appears late at night, after midnight so dress warm and grab a coffee and get out on the Backroads of Alberta to experience the beauty of Lady Aurora!
