1950 Map of Bendeleben D-5

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Goodhope River and its network of tributaries define this mid-century survey of the Seward Peninsula, captured by the Army Map Service using photogrammetric methods. The landscape is a complex system of drainage and relief, where Moonlight Creek and Humbolt Creek flow through a region marked by isolated human activity. A single Cabin stands as the only named structure in the western portion of the quadrangle, suggesting the seasonal or resource-based nature of occupancy in this part of the Second Judicial Division. The nomenclature, featuring names like Placer Creek and Ballarat Creek, hints at the prospecting history that has long influenced this Alaskan interior. To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly complex as Taylor Creek and Kennedy Creek cut through the rising elevations, providing a detailed record of the wilderness before later modern development.
