About this map

The Alaska Railroad cuts through the river valleys of the Matanuska-Susitna region in the early 1950s, following the drainage of the West Fork Chulitna River. This high-altitude landscape is defined by the massive Alaska Range and the southern edge of Mt McKinley National Park. The survey illustrates the era's industrial activity with the Golden Zone Mine and Silver King Mine perched near Bryn Mawr Creek, highlighting the region's mineral extraction history during a period of infrastructure expansion.
