1953 Map of Valdez A-5

About this map

Worthington Glacier dominates the upper-left quadrant of this mid-century Alaskan interior study, illustrating the ice mass as it appeared following 1950 aerial surveys. The landscape is defined by the critical transit corridor of the Richardson Highway, which winds through the high elevation of Thompson Pass. This route served as a primary artery into the interior, and the map captures the logistical infrastructure of the era through sites like Wortmanns and the ARC Camp.
