Parks, Midtown and Beyond
Fodor's Review:
Sandhill cranes, trumpeter swans and other migratory birds, as well as the occasional moose or beaver, frequent this marsh about 10 mi south of downtown on the Seward Highway. An elevated boardwalk makes viewing easy, and during the summer there are salmon runs in the creek beneath the bridge. The Potter Section House, an old railroad service building just south of the marsh, operates as a state-park office. Out front is an old engine with a rotary snowplow that was used to clear avalanches.
