Yakutat Airport Hanger, 2007

Yakutat (YAK) FAA Housing, Alaska, late 1960’s
This very old hanger sits on the airport ramp.  The old FSS building is located to the left of the hanger, out of the photo.  Locals keep their airplanes tightly packed in this hanger during the winter months because wet heavy snowfall can accumulate on aircraft wings so quickly that wings can snap off in a matter of a few hours.
