On Saturday, I visited my uncle's farm and I got a few pictures of the mountains and a striking birch tree.
I believe those mountains are part of the Alaskan Range, but I'm unclear how far away they are. From my uncle's farm (about 20 miles east of Fairbanks) there are some mountains around 20 km to the south, and then there are the big mountains around 100 km to the south.
