==Route description==
The Hope Highway begins at an intersection with the Seward Highway (AK-1), inside Chugach National Forest. The highway proceeds north, traveling through several miles of pine forest, in a valley in the Kenai Mountain range. The highway passes alongside the Resurrection Creek, which was the source for the settlement of this area. The road proceeds through the abandoned settlement of Sunrise City, which was an old mining town.〔 The roadway proceeds to the Turnagain Arm, and turns in a westward direction. The road continues along the arm for several miles before entering the city of Hope. The highway passes through Hope, intersecting the Old Hope Highway and several smaller streets before exiting the town and reentering the forest. The highway reaches its northern terminus, an access road to the Porcupine Creek Campgrounds. The entire length of the Hope Highway is located in the Chugach National Forest. No portion of the highway is listed on the National Highway System.
