1952 Map of Anchorage C-5

About this map

The Matanuska River and the Glenn Highway carve a primary transit corridor through this high-altitude landscape in the early 1950s. This survey, based on 1949 aerial photography, documents the glacier-carved topography of the Chugach Mountains, where sharp peaks like Pinnacle Mtn and Kings Mtn overlook a network of drainage systems. The transport pattern is defined by the road and a parallel Trail that follows the river's northern bank toward the Kings River confluence.
