Ask for the publications entitled “Alaska Catalog of Topographical and Other Published Maps” and “Alaska Index to Topographic and Map Coverage.” The catalog lists the over-the-counter dealers of U.S. Geological maps in Alaska (see page 5). Residents of Alaska may order Alaska maps from the Alaska Distribution Section, U.S. Geological Survey, New Federal Bldg., Box 12, 101 Twelfth Ave., Fairbanks, AK 99701.
