Description 

This area holds the majority of the rock climbing close to Anchorage. The rock is blasted cliff faces along the Seward Highway. It is a great place to go to after work or just for a few hours. It can be really pretty looking over the ocean, if you can push the busy highway aside.

All information of the Seward Highway was taken out of The Scar by Kristian Sieling.

Getting There 

Head south out of Anchorage, once you hit the Weigh Station reset your odometer.
