1950 Map of Bendeleben C-6

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Kougarok River serves as the central artery for this remote Seward Peninsula mining landscape, where early 1950s infrastructure supports gold exploration. The settlement of Taylor appears as a key hub along the river, connected to the surrounding drainage systems by a network of tractor trails. Evidence of industry is scattered throughout the region, most notably at the Gold Mine near the headwaters of Washington Creek. Logistics for these interior operations relied heavily on aviation, as seen by the presence of a Landing Strip near Taylor and the high-altitude Harris Dome Landing Strip positioned near Harris Dome. The map illustrates a transitional period for transportation, featuring several routes marked as Under Construction or designated as Winter Trails, snaking through the drainages of California Creek and Eureka Creek.
