1949 Map of Gulkana C-1

About this map

The Copper River dominates this mid-century Alaskan interior landscape, carving a wide, braided path through the terrain as it appeared during the initial post-war surveying period. The Glenn Highway traces a narrow line of human development across the northern portion of the map, providing a vital transport corridor past Grizzly Lake and the Cobb Lakes. To the south, the vast protected reaches of the Wrangell-Saint Elias National Preserve and Wrangell-Saint Elias Wilderness are established, reflecting the region's transition into a preserved natural landscape. Watercourses like Boulder Creek and Ahtell Creek feed the larger river system, illustrating the drainage patterns of this subarctic environment before significant modern alteration.
