1954 Map of Bethel C-3

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Kilbuck Mountains dominate this 1:63,360 scale topographic study, revealing a complex drainage network in the Alaskan interior. The landscape is defined by the high divides between the Salmon River and several significant tributaries, including Karl Creek and Clear Creek. This mid-century survey, based on 1957 aerial photography and 1954 field data, documents the unpopulated wilderness before significant modern infrastructure development. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the headwaters of Quicksilver Cr and Swift Creek carve through the elevation, while multiple instances of Quartz Creek suggest the mineral interests that often drew surveyors and prospectors to these isolated ranges. The map lacks roads or established trails, showing instead the raw topography of the territory.
