1979 Map of Anchorage B-7 NE

About this map

Eklutna and its surrounding river valley represent a critical junction of infrastructure and heritage in late-1970s Alaska. The landscape is defined by the corridor of The Alaska Railroad and the Glenn Highway, which run parallel along the base of the peaks within Chugach State Park. A small Cem and Eklutna Siding mark the local settlement, while recreational and youth sites like Chugach Camp and Camp Gorsuch are tucked near the shores of Mirror Lake and Edmonds Lake. To the north, the terrain gives way to the tidal environment of the Knik Arm, where the Matanuska River and Knik River converge across the expansive Duck Flats. The inclusion of various Gravel Pits and a Quarry indicates the active material extraction supporting regional growth during this era.
