March 27, 1964, is a date forever etched in Alaska’s history. On that Good Friday evening, a massive magnitude 9.2 earthquake—the strongest ever recorded in North America—struck Prince William Sound.

That event claimed over 130 lives and caused destruction from Alaska all the way to California and Hawaii. With its combination of tectonic activity, steep underwater slopes, and…
