1959 Map of Cordova C-2

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Copper River corridor dominates this late-1950s landscape, illustrating the difficult engineering required to navigate this glacial terrain. The Million Dollar Bridge stands as a landmark of the era, situated where the river squeezes between the massive Miles Glacier and Miles Lake. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade and sections noted as Under Construction trace the path of historic transport routes attempting to bypass the churning Abercrombie Rapids and the narrow passage of Baird Canyon.
