About Alphabet Hills

The Alphabet Hills are a remote and rugged mountain range located in the heart of Alaska's interior. Stretching over 50 miles, the range is characterized by steep, jagged peaks and deep, glaciated valleys. The terrain is challenging, with alpine meadows, scree fields, and numerous permanent snowfields and glaciers covering the higher elevations. Wildlife is abundant, including Dall sheep, grizzly bears, and caribou, which roam the remote wilderness.
