1949 Map of Anchorage D-5

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Talkeetna Mountains dominate this 1949 survey, where the valley floor of the Matanuska River meets the steep ascent of high peaks like Castle Mountain and Kings Mtn. Along the southern corridor, the Glenn Highway traces the riverbank, providing the primary artery for transportation through this territory. Small-scale development is evident near Thirtymile Lake, where isolated Cabins are noted, suggesting early recreational or subsistence use of the land.
