Yes! We saw them from a plane at 30,000 feet over Newfoundland on the way from Seattle to London in late December. About ten years ago, I think. An amazing sight. Shootingstar, did you know that there's a Center for the Study of Northern Lights in Churchill, Manitoba? AND you can visit there! http://www.churchillscience.ca/about...ern-lights.cfm
I am so tempted. I would love to go there. Explore.org has a live cam there and I've watched the Northern Lights on that live cam all winter.
Ooh...and we saw several moose last year at Glacier Park. The hike to Bullhead Lake there passes several smaller lakes much frequented by moose. Glacier Park is not that far away from you, shootingstar. That's another thing you could look into. Waterton Lakes National Park in Canada borders Glacier Park. Glacier Park is the place of my heart and the most spectacular place I've ever been.
OK. I'll stop babbling now.

"My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure." O. Sacks
