Notes:
Sign came from tower 3—4 on the Snettisham Hydroelectric transmission line. This tower was damaged in the 4/16/2008 avalanche that cut hydro power to Juneau precipitating a local energy crisis. This was the first tower (heading north from Snettisham to Juneau) that was destroyed. Towers 3—4, 3—5 and 4—6 were destroyed. Towers in between sustained damage but were not destroyed.
