Akutagrak Hills

The Akutagrak Hills are a rugged, remote mountain range located in the heart of Alaska's interior. This compact range rises abruptly from the surrounding tundra, with steep, rocky slopes and deep glacial valleys. The landscape is characterized by jagged, glacier-carved peaks, alpine meadows, and numerous pristine lakes and streams. The climate is subarctic, with long, cold winters and short, cool summers. Wildlife is abundant, including caribou, Dall sheep, and a variety of birds and smaller mammals.
