the sun is setting over a mountain range

A misty sunset glows over the hills of Mt. Moffett on the island of Adak in the evening of July 21, 2023. The remote island on the western end of the Alaskan Aleutian chain of islands was the home to Naval Air Facility Adak from 1942 to 1997. These days, less than 30 people still live in the ruins of the sprawling city built for over 6000.
