Chugach Mountains

The Chugach Mountains are a vast and rugged mountain range in south-central Alaska, spanning over 200 miles from the Kenai Peninsula to the Copper River Basin. This coastal range is characterized by steep, glaciated peaks, deep valleys, and extensive alpine environments. The terrain is often steep and challenging, with many technical climbing routes and remote backcountry areas. Abundant glaciers, snowfields, and alpine lakes dot the landscape, providing stunning scenery and opportunities for outdoor exploration.
