In early July, we saw explosive wildfire activity north of Lake Iliamna in southwest Alaska.

It crashed on the frozen Lake Iliamna about eight miles southwest of the community of Iliamna, said Austin McDaniel, a spokesperson for the Alaska Department of Public Safety.

McDaniel said poor weather conditions and visibility between Anchorage and Iliamna and Kodiak and Iliamna initially hampered U.S.

It would also require dredging a port at Iliamna Bay.

“The corps’ decision is a huge victory for wild salmon, the Iliamna lake seal and other imperiled wildlife that call this spectacular place home,” he said.
