1951 Map of Valdez B-2

About this map

Taral occupies a strategic position at the confluence of the Copper River and Chitina River, serving as a focal point in this remote Alaskan interior landscape. The map records the remnant of the regional industrial history through the Railroad Grade that follows the western bank of the Copper River, a trace of the Copper River and Northwestern Railway which once moved ore from the interior to the coast. This transport corridor navigates the constricted passage of Wood Canyon, where the river narrows between steep walls.
