The scale of Alaska’s mountains = 🏔️🤯 📍 Grasshopper Ridge We had spent a week exploring the Chugach Mountains of Alaska, which are some of my favorite mountains to date. The sweeping views were absolutely insane. We were primarily around the Knik Glacier area, which runs 25 miles long and several miles wide. It’s crazy that this place is only an hour from Anchorage, too! 🏔️ Feat. @kyleresatka 🚶🏻‍♂️ #alaska #hiking #anchorage #cinematic #mountains | Ryan Resatka

Did you feel it 57 years ago today? On March 27th, 1964 the second-largest recorded earthquake in the world and largest in U.S. history struck Alaska. Lives were lost and our landscape was forever changed, but this event showed the world the power of earthquakes and tsunamis and made us better prepared today.
