1979 Map of Anchorage C-6 SW

About this map

The town of Palmer serves as the focal point of this late-1970s orthophotomap, showing the developed grid of the city alongside the extensive gravel bars of the Matanuska River. This hybrid map style, which overlays traditional topographic contours on aerial imagery, provides an exceptional view of the agricultural and institutional footprint in the Matanuska Valley. Notable educational and civic landmarks include the Community College, Sherrod School, and the State Fairground, while the transportation network is defined by the proximity of the Municipal Airport and the path of The Alaska Railroad.
