The Holy Transfiguration of Our Lord Chapel - Ninilchik, Alaska
The Holy Transfiguration of Our Lord Chapel, a Russian Orthodox church, sits near the bluff above the Ninilchik Small Boat Harbor, where the Ninilchik River empties into Cook Inlet on the west side of Alaska’s Kenai Peninsula. Mt. Iliamna, one of four active volcanoes in the Cook Inlet region is silhouetted on the far side of the Inlet. This image, taken in the mid-1980’s, can no longer be duplicated because willows have grown up all along the edge of the bluff almost totally obscuring one’s view of the Inlet and the mountain.
