About this map

Whittier stands as a vital rail-to-sea link in the early 1950s, serving as a deep-water terminal where the Alaska Railroad meets the waters of Passage Canal. The landscape is dominated by the industrial and military infrastructure of the era, including a CAA Station, numerous Tanks, and the engineering feat of The Tunnel, which provided the only land access through the massive peaks of the Chugach Mountains.
