Nenana Sauna House Nenana Sauna House is located in a cold Alaskan town. It serves as a sauna house and rest stop for truckers and travelers using energy and warmth gained from burning the abundance local spruce trees. It’s designed to be sinked underground to utilize the ground as a natural and efficient insulation.
