The Chugach is a forest formed by the actions of glaciers. Vast ice fields feed glaciers, which have carved out valleys in the mountains and calve icebergs where the glaciers meet the sea. In the summer, wildflowers and green vegetation flourish under nineteen hours of sunlight. You can enjoy this awe-inspiring landscape by hiking, skiing, flying, boating, kayaking or snow-machining. The two major Forest programs are fish and wildlife habitat restoration and recreation management.
The Chugach is the most northerly forest and has three distinct geographic areas. Prince William Sound encompasses almost half of the 5.6 million acres. It is an area of forested islands, intricate coastlines, and tidewater glaciers, with portions still recovering from the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill of 1989. The Copper River Delta encompasses almost a third of the forest. Congress established the area expressly for the conservation of fish and wildlife and their habitats. The Kenai Peninsula comprises 20 percent of the Chugach. Its lands, mountains, and rivers are the most accessible of the three areas with an extensive trail system, state highways and the Alaska Railroad.)
