About this map

The Alaska Railroad serves as the industrial backbone of this mid-century landscape, threading past small settlements and resource extraction sites. The town of Houston emerges as a focal point for local industry, evidenced by the nearby Houston Strip Mine and an adjacent Coal Mine. To the east, the community of Pittman sits near Bladgett Lake, while the vast hydrography of the region is defined by the winding Little Susitna River and numerous water bodies including Nancy Lake and Fish Lake.
