Bering Land Bridge National Preserve
Park Fun
A group of brown walrus, many with long white ivory tusks, sitting on the edge of the sea ice.

A group of walrus sitting on the sea ice. Walrus have to get out of the water every once in a while to rest and warm up. You can tell a walrus is cold when its skin is a very pale shade of pink.

Bering Land Bridge National Preserve is pretty far away from, well everywhere, so look here to take a virtual visit to the park and back in time to the ice age.

An inactive 2005 Bilge Creek Fire.

Did You Know?
A lightning strike ignites a fire in the preserve. The fire burns for a week and then rain puts it out. In about 7 years, a visitor could walk on the burned site having no idea there once was a fire under his or her feet. This speedy site re-vegetation is typical of tundra fire adapted ecosystems.
