1994 Map of Anchorage C-4

USGS Topo · Published 2001

About this map

The Metal Creek Glacier dominates the central landscape of this high-altitude topographic study, feeding the braided drainage of Metal Creek. Based on topography compiled in 1950 with updated planimetry from 1994, the map reveals a wilderness shaped by massive ice flows and sharp elevation changes in the Chugach Mountains. Notable watercourses like Carbon Creek and Coal Creek slice through the northern ridges, while Cottonwood Creek drains the southern slopes. This map captures the remote character of the Matanuska-Susitna region before the 21st century, showing a landscape defined entirely by its glacial geology and alpine hydrology rather than human settlement, making it an essential reference for geologists and wilderness historians studying Alaskas glacial retreat.
