1951 Map of Cordova C-5

About this map

Cordova serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, situated where the Heney Range meets the intricate waterways of Orca Inlet. The map details a landscape defined by its maritime and aviation infrastructure during the early 1950s, featuring a landing strip, seaplane base, and multiple docks that supported the local economy. Beyond the town center, the terrain is dominated by significant elevations such as Mt Eyak and Snyder Mtn, while the Copper River Highway begins its trek eastward toward the river delta.
