During World War II, the Army Corps of Engineers built four small airstrips in Southcentral Alaska, including one at Campbell Tract. Within the trees and shrubs are old foxholes and airplane parking spots. There is much to see if you just know where to look. Join us for a walk to learn about WWII history of Campbell Tract and find hidden pieces of the past.
This event is $5 per person; please register at Recreation.gov.
