1964 Map of Bethel A-6

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Eek River meanders across this subarctic landscape, carving a prominent path through a terrain defined by extensive wetlands and complex hydrologic patterns. This 1964 survey, based on 1957 aerial photography, reveals a remote wilderness south of Bethel where the Middle Fork Eek River converges with the main stem amidst a dense network of tundra ponds and seasonal water bodies. The eastern portion of the quadrangle rises toward the prominent elevations of the Great Ridge, providing a sharp topographic contrast to the low-lying river valley. The presence of the Base Line survey marker underscores the systematic effort to map this Alaskan interior during the mid-20th century, capturing the area before any established road networks or permanent settlements were documented in this specific sector.
