About this map

The Susitna River and Little Susitna River dominate this early 1950s landscape, illustrating the critical transportation corridors that shaped the Matanuska-Susitna region. The path of The Alaska Railroad cuts through the territory, passing through small railside settlements like Houston and Pittman. This era highlights the early extraction economy of the area, clearly marking the Houston Strip Mine and a local Coal Mine near the riverbanks.
