Author(s): Henry R. Schmoll; Lynn A. Yehle

Year: 1989

Summary

The Anchorage B-7 SW quadrangle is located in south-central Alaska within the Municipality of Anchorage; the community of Eagle River is centered in the map area which is traversed north to south by Glenn Highway and the Alaska Railroad. The quadrangle is one of a series in the Anchorage-Knik Arm region for which surficial geologic maps have been completed recently at a scale of 1:25,000 (Daniels, 1981a,b; Reger, 1981a,b,c,d; Yehle and Schmoll, 1987a,b;1988; fig.2). The map area includes parts of two physiographic provinces, the Kenai-Chugach Mountains and the Cook Inlet-Susitna Lowland. This report provides details of geological characteristics of the Anchorage B-7 SW quadrangle.
