- Layers- Temperatures can vary widely in Alaska, so pack layers that can be easily added or removed depending on the weather. Alaska is known for its rain and mist, so it’s important to pack waterproof layer, such as a rain jacket, rain pants, and waterproof boots. This will keep you dry and comfortable during any excursions or outdoor activities.
