English: Keith Winton Specking (1919–2009) was an American wilderness guide and politician. Born in
Hanson, Kentucky, Specking came to
Alaska following World War II and was one of the first settlers in what is now the southern portions of
Anchorage, Alaska proper (a street paralleling the
Seward Highway is named for him). Specking later moved to
Hope, Alaska and became well known as a wilderness guide and outfitter. He served as a Republican member of the
Alaska House of Representatives from 1971 to 1977, when he resigned to become an adviser to Alaska governor
Jay Hammond.
