1949 Map of Valdez D-8

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Glenn Highway traces the northern corridor of this landscape, providing a critical transportation link through the Matanuska-Susitna Borough in the late 1940s. The terrain is dominated by the massive rise of Heavenly Ridge, which separates the braided channels of the Nelchina River and Little Nelchina River from the southern drainages of Bottle Creek and Barnette Creek. This area illustrates a mid-century frontier environment where human presence is sparse, marked only by a lone Cabin and a roadside Campground.
