Site Summit Tours overview
Nike Site Summit was an active part of America's first line of military defense from 1959 to 1979, during the Cold War era. Now, Friends of Nike Site Summit (FONSS) volunteers are working with Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson to restore Site Summit as a valuable community resource, part of the Arctic Valley “experience,” and as a tool to educate current and future generations about the contributions of Cold War veterans, particularly those who served at Site Summit.
