Summit Lake (Chugach National Forest)

Summit Lake (or Upper Summit Lake)[1] is located on Canyon Creek in the Chugach National Forest, Alaska, United States and is situated along the Seward Highway (AK-1) 10 miles (16 km) north-northeast of Moose Pass and about 23 miles (37 km) southwest of the Portage area of Anchorage.

The lake empties into Canyon Creek on the northeast, which flows through Lower Summit Lake, into Six Mile Creek, and eventually into the Turnagain Arm of the Cook Inlet.

The Summit Lake Lodge is located just off the Seward Highway on the north shore of Summit Lake[3] and the Tenderfoot Creek Campground is located directly south of the lodge, but on the east shore of the lake.

[5][6][7] The lake has a natural population of both Dolly Varden and Lake trout, but is also stocked annually with fingerling Rainbow trout.
