Life in Anchorage, Alaska
Anchorage is Alaska's largest city, home to about 290,000 people and set between the Chugach Mountains and the waters of Cook Inlet. It's a true gateway to Alaska adventure, where moose wander city trails, summers bring the midnight sun and winters light up with the northern lights.
On days off, bike the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail, hike Flattop Mountain and Chugach State Park, or drive the scenic Seward Highway along Turnagain Arm to spot beluga whales and Dall sheep. Ski or ride the tram at Alyeska Resort in Girdwood, take a glacier cruise from Whittier or Seward, or catch a flightseeing tour to Denali. Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport is about 15 minutes from the hospital.

Anchorage, AK
About
Anchorage is a unique city surrounded by 5,000-foot-high peaks in the south-central part of Alaska along the Cook Inlet, where abundant salmon and whales swim through. It's filled with cultural sites, including many museums and the Alaska Native Heritage Center, which offers stage performances and displays traditional crafts and replicas of dwellings from indigenous groups in the area. Top-notch eateries serving dishes with locally grown produce and fresh seafood abound, while the two roads running in and out of town lead to some of the world's most majestic wilderness areas. Outdoor activities are plentiful, including hiking and fishing within the city’s borders but only minutes from downtown is Chugach State Park, a 9,000-square-mile park with spectacular terrain for hiking, biking, ATV rides, kayaking, rafting and fishing. Nearby at Beluga Point, watch for the famous white whales that look like they sport permanent grins.
