1951 Map of Valdez B-4

About this map

The Richardson Highway cuts a vital path through this high-altitude corridor of the Chugach Mountains, tracing the valley of the Tiekel River during the early 1950s. This survey documents the critical transport infrastructure of the era, centered on the small settlements of Tiekel Cache and Tiekel, which served as essential stops along the route between Valdez and the interior. The landscape is dominated by massive peaks like Rice Mtn and Mt Tiekel, with a network of glacial runoff streams including Stuart Creek and Fiftynine Mile Creek feeding into the main river systems.
