Local Notes
- Glacier Bay/Rock Ptarmigan: (edit)
- Haines/Rock Ptarmigan: (edit)
- Juneau/Rock Ptarmigan: (edit)
- Ketchikan/Rock Ptarmigan: (edit)
- Sitka/Rock Ptarmigan: Probably at least Uncommon in appropriate habitat. The alpine habitat preferred by this species is not accessible by road, and other access is difficult and/or expensive, so true abundance is not certain. Best seen near town on Bear Mountain. Collections have been made on Kruzof Island and Chichagof Island. (edit)
