Resolution Park

  • Address: 3rd Ave. at L St., Downtown, Anchorage, AK | Map It

Fodor's Review:

This tiny park has a cantilevered viewing platform dominated by a monument to Captain Cook (whose explorations in 1778 led to the naming of Cook Inlet and many other geographic features in Alaska). Mt. Susitna, known as the Sleeping Lady, is the prominent low mountain to the northwest and Mounts Spurr and Redoubt, active volcanoes, are just south of Mt. Su. Mt. McKinley, Mt. Foraker, and other peaks of the Alaska range are often visible from over 100 mi away.
