Review:

Fort Abercrombie State Historical Park, also known as Fort Abercrombie State Historic Site, is a lovely 182-acre Alaska state park located on beautiful Kodiak Island, at the edge of picturesque Miller Point on the island's eastern shores. The park, which is named in honor of United States Army officer and early Alaska explorer Lieutenant Colonel William R. Abercrombie, was established in 1969 to protect the remains of significant World War II-era fortifications. The fort, which was constructed in 1941 and abandoned following the end of the war, saw no action during conflict but preserves gun emplacements, foundational building remains, and underground magazines. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970 and is designated as part of a larger National Historic Landmark also protecting the Kodiak Naval Operating Base and Fort Greely. Hiking trails are offered at the park, along with areas for day-use picnics and overnight tent camping.
