About this map

The Matanuska River valley and the high slopes of the Talkeetna Mountains define this mid-century interior landscape. Centered on the settlement of Chickaloon, the map documents a transition in wilderness transport as the Glenn Highway follows the riverbank, while older routes like the Chickaloon Knik Nelchina Trail push into the backcountry. Resource extraction history is visible at the Coal Mine (Aban'd) near Coal Creek, which includes a noted Cable Tramway used for moving materials across the steep terrain.
