1951 Map of Anchorage C-6
USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
The Matanuska River valley opens into a complex network of glacial landforms and coal-rich uplands in this early 1950s record of Southcentral Alaska. The burgeoning settlement of Palmer serves as the regional hub, flanked by an extensive system of local aviation infrastructure including the Whitaker Landing Strip, McKinley Landing Strip, and Smith Landing Strip. This reliance on small aircraft highlights the era's transport patterns before the full development of the road network.
