About this map

The Talkeetna Mountains define this 1952 study, revealing a landscape dominated by the hard-rock gold mining industry of the mid-20th century. High-altitude operations are concentrated near Hatcher Pass, where a network of trails and the Willow Creek Road connect productive sites like the Independence Mine and Gold Bullion Mine. This era of Alaskan history is captured through the density of named mining claims, including the Lucky Shot Mine and War Baby Mine, which are situated along steep drainages such as Craigie Creek.
