About this map

The Chugach Mountains dominate this 1950 aerial survey of the Alaska interior, showing a landscape defined by massive ice fields and active glacial drainage. Large arterial glaciers, including Wortmanns Glacier and Cordova Glacier, are shown in high topographic detail, with numerous crevasses mapped across their surfaces. These frozen giants feed southern-flowing water systems like the Gravina River and Simpson Creek.
