Lake Clark National Park & Preserve
Historic Architecture and Cultural Landscapes
Hope's cabin on Upper Twin Lake.
 

Lake Clark National Park and Preserve relies on specialists at the Alaska Regional Office's Cultural Resources Program to assist with historic architecture and cultural landscapes research. The Historic Architecture Program manages the region’s historic structures inventory and prepares Historic American Building Survey (HABS) and Historic American Engineering Record (HAER) projects.

Lake Clark National Park and Preserve has several historic structures, including Proenneke's cabin on Upper Twin Lake and the Bly House in Port Alsworth.

A cultural landscape is a geographic area with special natural and cultural significance. Areas that are designated and managed as cultural landscapes are usually associated with an historic event, activity, or person, or have other extraordinary cultural or aesthetic values.

Alaska Regional Office staff are currently documenting two important cultural landscapes in Lake Clark National Park and Preserve: the Telaquana Trail Corridor and Kijik National Historic Landmark. Recognizing these special places in the Lake Clark area helps us preserve and share the region's history.
