Afognak Forest

Afognak Forest and Fish Culture was established by the United States General Land Office in Alaska on December 24, 1892, as a forest preserve. It covered 403,640 acres (1,633.5 km) in 1905, when the forest reserves were transferred to the U.S. Forest Service. On July 1, 1908, the entire forest was combined with Chugach National Forest and the name was discontinued.
