1953 Map of Valdez A-3

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Copper River dominates this mid-century glacial landscape, branching through a complex braided system where it meets the Tasnuna River. This survey captures a region defined by remnants of early transport infrastructure, most notably the Old Railroad Grade and Old Trail Road that track along the riverbanks near The Peninsula. These features point to a history of industry and transit through the mountains, providing passage through otherwise formidable terrain marked by crevasses and the massive Schwan Gl.
