1979 Map of Anchorage A-8 SE

About this map

The coastline of Turnagain Arm meets the rising peaks of the Chugach Mountains in this detailed look at South Anchorage during the late 1970s. The landscape is defined by the corridor of the Alaska Railroad and the Seward Highway as they skirt the muddy shores toward the southeast. Small settlements like Potter and Rainbow are visible, alongside markers of local life such as the O'Malley Sch and the Landing Strip (Nystrom).
