1960 Map of Anchorage A-7

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Fort Richardson Military Reservation dominates the northwestern portion of this Alaskan landscape, where the Arctic Valley Road leads into the high country near the Alpenglow Ski Area. The topography is defined by the sharp transition from the Eagle River valley into the high peaks of Chugach State Park. Surveyed in the late 1950s and annotated in 1960, the map traces early access routes like Powerline Pass and the approach to the Eagle River Visitor Center. Glacial features are prominent, including Flute Glacier and the high alpine Eagle Lake and Symphony Lake. This document captures the wilderness character of the front range before extensive modern trail development, recording the original nomenclature for peaks like Mount Williwaw and North Suicide Peak.
