1960 Map of Anchorage A-3

About this map

College Fiord serves as the central focal point of this coastal Alaskan landscape, where massive ice fields meet the sea within the Chugach National Forest. The map documents a remarkable concentration of tidewater and hanging glaciers, many named for Ivy League and prominent women's colleges, including the Bryn Mawr, Wellesley, Smith, and Vassar. These ice flows descend from high peaks like Mt Emerson and Mt Coville, terminating at the water's edge of the Harvard Arm and Yale Arm.
