YES, YOU CAN see Russia from Alaska. I've noticed that several people have visited my earlier link which has since succumbed to link rot.

The above link is to the Bering Strait School District, which has 4 controllable webcams; two of which look out toward Russia. Only one of the webcams appears to be operating today, which given Alaska's weather, is probably reasonable. Here are two pictures I took at at 7:56 and 8:16 pm Eastern time today. I was controlling the camera from my desktop.
