About this map

Klutina Lake dominates this mid-century Alaskan interior landscape, acting as a massive basin for the drainage of the surrounding Copper River region. The survey reveals a landscape of high summits and deep glacial valleys, where the Klutina River flows southward from the lake's outlet through a complex braided channel system. The presence of a Cabin near the western shore and another at the lake's southern tip indicates the sparse human footprint in this wilderness during the early 1950s, likely serving as isolated trapper or traveler shelters along the water routes. The terrain is defined by prominent peaks such as Dyke Mtn and Marshall Mtn, while the Hallet River feeds into the main drainage from the west. This map provides a detailed look at the unroaded interior before modern development, capturing the drainage patterns of St Anne Creek and the steep elevation changes surrounding Powell Peak.
