1959 Map of Cordova

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Cordova sits as the central hub of this coastal survey, where the rugged peaks of the Chugach Mountains meet the waters of Orca Inlet and Orca Bay. The map documents a critical transition in Alaskan transportation history, showing the path of the Copper River and Northwestern Railway alongside the developing Copper River Highway. To the east, the sprawling Copper River Delta is intricately detailed with its shifting waterways, including Alaganik Slough and Kokinhenik Slough, which dominate the landscape between the gulf and the mountains.
