Chugach National Forest
The Chugach National Forest is a 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Land Areas of the National Forest System (As of September 30, 2011) )〕 United States National Forest in south central Alaska. Covering portions of Prince William Sound, the Kenai Peninsula and the Copper River Delta, it was formed in 1907 from part of a larger forest reserve. The Chugach includes extensive shorelines, glaciers, forests and rivers, much of which is untouched by roads or trails. It hosts numerous bird, mammal and marine species, including extensive shorebird habitat and a bald eagle population larger than the continental 48 states combined. Human industry in the forest includes extensive tourism and some mining and oil and gas operations.
==History==
The area that is now Chugach was settled by Native Americans thousands of years ago. It was discovered by Europeans in the mid-1700s, and soon settled by Russian fur traders, who trapped the native sea otters. In 1867, the US purchased Alaska from Russia and gold was found in 1888. In 1907, the Chugach National Forest was created from a portion of forest reserve, which had been one of the first of its kind, designated in 1892.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Chugach National Forest )〕
