Two large military bases—Fort Richardson and Elmendorf Air Force Base—are directly west of the Anchorage suburb of Eagle River. Directly east is Chugach State Park, the nation’s third largest state park at a half-million acres. This nature preserve includes Thunderbird Falls, popular in the summer and winter. Nearby, Eklutna Village Historical Park gives a glimpse of Russian influence in Alaska.
