No. Rainforests are in the the Tropics. Alaska is tundra. Tundra is mild in summer and very cold in winter... INCORRECT... Alaska has a quite varied terrain, not just tundra. Rainforests come in two varieties: tropical and temperate. At least seven states in the USA have temperate rainforests, the majority of which stretch from northern California along the coast up to Alaska with a few more in the Appalachian area of North Carolina, Georgia, and Tennessee. The two most famous temperate rainforests in the USA are probably the Hoh Rainforest on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington and most of the Tongass National Forest in Alaska. The existence of rainforests in the northern reaches of the Appalachians is debated as apparently the definition of what makes a rainforest isn't exact. In fact, you will often see the Hoh Rainforest referred to as the only true rainforest in the lower 48 states of America (the Hawaiian islands hold many tropical rainforests of course).
