About this map

The Metal Creek Glacier dominates the central landscape of this 1960 survey, serving as the massive headwater source for the drainages that carve through the Chugach Mountains. The glacial flow feeds directly into Metal Creek, which runs south through a broad valley floor, while secondary systems like Cottonwood Creek contribute to the complex hydrologic network of the Matanuska-Susitna region. In the northern reaches, the names Coal Creek and Carbon Creek suggest the mineral potential and geological composition that historically drew interest to this part of Alaska.
