1959 Map of Cordova D-2
USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
The Copper River dominates this mid-century Alaskan landscape, serving as the central artery for a complex network of glacial melt and braided waterways. By the late 1950s, the industrial footprint of the region had transitioned into a historical record, most notably evidenced by the Old Railroad Grade that traces the riverbank. This path represents the remnants of the Copper River and Northwestern Railway, which once connected coastal ports to inland copper mines.
