Scientists are finding strong evidence that Southeast Alaska’s outer coast used to have another layer of islands and peninsulas. They rose up as advancing ice-age glaciers pushed a bulge of land ahead of them as much as 15,000 years ago. And the now-sunken ground could harbor hidden evidence of the region's first human inhabitants.Ed Schoenfeld, CoastAlaska - Juneau
