1979 Map of Bethel D-2
USGS Topo · Published 1979About this map
Salmon River drainage systems define this 1970s interior landscape, where the legacy of industrial extraction is visible in the prominent Dredge Tailings along Marvel Creek. These markings, alongside a remote Landing Strip near the riverbank, indicate a geography shaped by mid-century mineral exploration and isolated transport networks. High elevations such as Marvel Dome and Mount Plummer overlook a dense web of alpine waterways including Robin Creek, Dominion Creek, and Eagle Creek. The presence of several named tributaries like Wilhelmina Creek and Fisher Creek provides specific landmarks for understanding the hydrological and topographic character of the region during this period of geological survey.
