This Abandoned Alaska Tunnel Has a Dark Past...

Подробнее о видео

We stumbled upon a piece of forgotten history deep in Keystone Canyon, Alaska: a tunnel with a dark and fascinating past. See the FULL video:
Built around 1905 during the frenzy of the Gold and Copper Rush, this tunnel was meant to be a lifeline for a railroad servicing the legendary Kennecott Mine. The plan was to ship priceless ore from the mountains down to the port of Valdez. But the railroad was never completed, and the tunnel was abandoned to the harsh Alaskan wilderness.
The story doesn't end there. This area was the epitome of the Wild West, and the history even includes a dramatic shootout not far from this very spot. Standing at the entrance, you can't help but feel the weight of that history. It's easy to see why it feels like a set from a zombie apocalypse movie.
Exploring these hidden corners and uncovering their stories is what "Living My Alaska" is all about. Join us on this adventure into Alaska's past.
