Girdwood and the nearby community of Alyeska sit at the intersection of steep mountain terrain and the tidal mudflats of the Turnagain Arm. Recorded in the early 1980s, this landscape shows the developed footprints of these mountain settlements where Glacier Creek meets the coast. The map illustrates a high degree of topographic variation, transitioning from the sea-level flats to the high elevations of Chugach State Park and Chugach National Forest.
