1948 Map of Anchorage D-3

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Matanuska River valley serves as the central corridor of this 1948 survey, where the Glenn Highway traces a winding path between the Talkeetna Mountains to the north and the Chugach Mountains to the south. The landscape is defined by its glacial and hydrological features, headlined by the Matanuska Glacier in the southeast corner. Human activity is concentrated along the highway, marked by small outposts like the Watchtower Inn and localized settlements including Purin and Tukmakna.
