Again....Thanks for these tidbits of Anchorage area histories. Yes, I had heard of Glacier City and knew is was Girdwood later in its life. I even remember Girdwood BEFORE the Ghost Forest came into being during the longest 4.5 minutes or so of my life. One piece of history that I can't seem to come across is the Indian/Bird Creek histories. Especially the connection over/through Chugach Range to Eagle River. Any ideas? Any future history tidbits from the two of you? Love these "OH, Yeah...I remember moments" your efforts provide.
Great story...Thanks for sharing.
Michael and Mary Lefner
Michael and Mary – We are very happy that you two enjoyed this edition of the Anchorage Memories VIP Club.
M&M, ( my new nickname for you two, because you are such a treat)
In a word, Fascinating! I would have guessed it was another name for Portage. Thanks for the always entertaining Sunday morning read,
Cindy Pen…
Cindy – Thank you for the nickname… We like it… So glad that the Anchorage Memories VIP Club is part of your Sunday Morning… M&M.

Randall – We'll do some research on the history of Indian/Bird Creek… And we'll keep up the “Did You Know?” tidbits. Thank you.
