1951 Map of Talkeetna
USGS Topo · Published 1951About this map
The Alaska Railroad corridor serves as the primary artery for travel and commerce in this mid-century survey, linking the towns of Talkeetna, Sunshine, and Montana along the eastern edge of the map. To the west, the landscape is defined by the massive ice fields of the Kahiltna Glacier and Chedotlothna Glacier, which feed into a complex network of waterways including the Kahiltna River and Yentna River. Evidence of early aviation infrastructure is visible in the series of remote landing strips, such as the Fairview Airstrip and Airstrip Petersville, which supported local mining and back-country access.
