Palmer Hay Flats
Low-lying coastal wetlands framed by distant Alaska Range peaks — ideal for golden-hour reflections, moose and waterfowl, sweeping marsh textures and dramatic cloudscapes. Accessible from Glenn Highway with informal pullouts and a small parking area; no entry fee. Best at sunrise/sunset for backlit reeds and mirror-like pools, late spring–early autumn for wildlife, winter for stark frozen compositions and aurora. Note bugs in summer and variable weather—dress in layers and bring insect repellent
