1948 Map of Anchorage D-3

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Matanuska River valley serves as the central artery for this late-1940s landscape, where the Glenn Highway winds between the massive formations of the Talkeetna Mountains and the Chugach Mountains. The survey captures the corridor during a period of expanding access, documented shortly after the highway's completion. Significant landmarks like the Watchtower Inn and the small settlement at Purin appear alongside established resource areas like Anthracite Ridge.
