Description

At the Hidden Creek Overlook in the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge you get a fine view of so much of the refuge, including one of the two large lakes in the refuge, Skilak Lake. The Kenai National Wildlife Refuge is a 1.92-million-acre wildlife habitat preserve located on the Kenai Peninsula of Alaska, adjacent to Kenai Fjords National Park. It is one of over 500 units in the National Wildlife Refuge System, a 150-million-acre network of lands and waters set aside to help conserve our nation’s fish and wildlife heritage. In 1941, FDR authorized this area as the Kenai National Moose Range, to protect the moose from market hunting. In 1980, the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act re-designated it as the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge. The Kenai National Wildlife Refuge is comprised of a variety of ecosystems to support the diverse wildlife in the area. Ice fields and glaciers, mountain tundra, lakes, wetlands, and rivers support mountain goats, Dall sheep, caribou, wolverine, moose, wolves, black and brown bears, and king salmon.
