Glamping in the greenbelts: Anchorage’s luxury lawlessness, with free tents for vagrants

0
Brand new tent set up along a street in Anchorage is one of many encampments that have popped up this summer. Many of the new encampments feature fresh-out-of-the-box tents, most likely provided by taxpayer-funded nonprofits.

Anchorage’s greenbelts are still persistent encampment zones, a city where summer brings not tourists but tarps, tents, and trash. Despite laws meant to prevent it, illegal camping sprawls unchecked across public lands. We give you an unfiltered look at the slow unraveling of Alaska’s largest city under Mayor Suzanne LaFrance and Democrat rule. These images tell the story:
