1948 Map of Cordova

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The coastal gateway of Cordova sits at the heart of this post-war reconnaissance, where the waters of Orca Inlet meet the dense terrain of the Chugach National Forest. This survey captures the logistical backbone of the region's early industrial era, specifically the Copper River and Northwestern Ry and the emerging Copper River Highway. These transport corridors were vital for the movement of resources from the interior to the coast, passing through or near settlements like Alaganik and Katalla.
