arrived in Alaska for first time Sunday afternoon and was at Baldy Sunday night and the deep red was nestled between waves of this pink and green was visible to the naked eye and every bit as rich as this picture shows. I was unaware these deep hues and/or this intensity were even available to the naked eye but the activity on Sunday evening was...🥲. Thanks for this!

Normally it’s mainly greens that you’ll see. During times of higher geomagnetic activity is when the reds come out. I’m glad you enjoyed the show!
Hatchers pass is where a lot of people go to see/take pictures of the aurora. The light pollution there is minimal.
