single track biking trails. History The area now designated as Kincaid Park, along with nearby Fire Island in Cook Inlet was withdrawn from Chugach National Forest in 1915 and established as the Point Campbell Military Reservation. A submarine observation post occupied Fire Island during World War II. From 1959-1979 the reservation was primarily occupied by a Nike-Hercules surface-to-air missile battery, Site Point. Following the decommissioning of the site, the reservation was conveyed, in several different stages, to the Municipality of Anchorage. Several of the former military structures were repurposed and in use, including Kincaid Chalet and several storage facilities. Kincaid Park, adjacent airport lands maintained as woodland, and nearby Point Woronzof Park (191.7 acres) offer the best semi-wilderness experiences closest to West and Downtown Anchorage.
