1959 Map of McCarthy B-6

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Kennecott and McCarthy anchor this mid-century topographic record of the Copper River region, a landscape defined by the legacies of industrial mining and glacial movement. The industrial footprint is evident in the Aerial Tram near Bonanza Creek and the long Old Railroad Grade that follows the Kennicott River south from the Kennicott Glacier. These features represent the logistical arteries that once connected the copper mines to the coast.
