Alaska Route 10 is the number given to two unconnected highways in the U.S. state of Alaska: the Copper River and Edgerton highways. The issue of connecting them is routinely discussed in the Alaska Legislature but never reaches a decision, in part due to local opposition and some controversy arising from the fact that a connection would traverse Chugach National Forest. Any connecting corridor would most likely follow the route of the former Copper River and Northwestern Railway.
