1970 Map of Bettles D-4

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Koyukuk River and John River converge in this subarctic wilderness, creating a complex network of wetlands and sloughs such as Goose Slough and Horseshoe Lake. In the early 1970s, the settlement of Evansville served as a vital transportation node, featuring a Boat and Seaplane Landing Area and Bettles Field for interior access. The landscape is defined by the Alatna Hills to the west and Lookout Mountain, with a Winter Trail providing the only overland connection through the marshy lowlands of Fickett Creek and Jane Creek. Local history is anchored at the Bettles Cem, while technical infrastructure is represented by several Radio Towers and the Bettles S Base survey marker.
