1955 Map of Baird Mountains B-6

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Squirrel River winds across the southern reaches of this landscape, carving a prominent valley through the interior of the Northwest Arctic region. Surveyed in the mid-1950s, the terrain transitions from the broader alluvial plains near the riverbanks into the higher elevations of the northern heights. This 1955 Army Map Service study, published later by the Geological Survey, captures a purely natural environment without any recorded settlements, roads, or industrial improvements at the time of the field annotation. The drainage patterns and topographic contours provide a detailed look at the unpeopled wilderness as it stood before modern development, focusing entirely on the relationship between the Squirrel River and the surrounding mountain slopes.
