1960 Map of Anchorage A-1

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Columbia Glacier dominates this landscape, its massive ice fields and tributaries carving through the terrain within the Chugach National Forest. The map captures a complex glacial system during the mid-20th century, including the First Branch Columbia Glacier and the distinct Pedro Glacier to the west. This 1960 field-annotated survey provides a significant look at the intersection of the Seward Meridian and Copper River Meridian, showing the alignment of ice and water before decades of documented glacial retreat.
