Nikiski is on a dead end road north of Kenai, so that's the city we're most associated with. Anchorage is about 50 miles away by air, but it's about 180 miles by road. The map shows the route through the mountains and around Turnagain Arm.

D' you know I had looked and looked and looked at that map and couldn't find Nikiski - and there it is... plain as day. image
