Bering Land Bridge National Preserve, Alaska

Stone structure with a rainbow over a lake or river in the background

December 1, 1978: Located on the Seward Peninsula, the preserve is a remnant of the land bridge that once connected Asia with North America over 13,000 years ago and served as a continental crossroad that greatly influenced the distribution of life in the Western Hemisphere. Today it is a vital landscape for Indigenous communities who depend on the land just as their ancestors did for many generations, as well as the wildlife in northern Alaska.
