1952 Map of Seward D-7

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The Alaska Railroad skirts the northern mud flats of Turnagain Arm in this 1952 topographic survey, connecting the small coastal settlements of Indian and Bird. The landscape is dominated by the steep peaks of the Chugach National Forest, where a network of mining operations and remote camps are accessed via the Hope Highway and Palmer Creek Road. The proximity of the shoreline to the high mountain ridges creates a dramatic relief, with an average tidal range of 30 feet recorded at the coast.
