1958 Map of Big Delta D-4

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The East Fork Chena River and S Fork Chena River define this remote interior landscape during the late 1950s. The region is largely uninhabited, save for a lone Cabin situated north of the river and a network of seasonal routes including a Winter Trail and several unmarked trails. This topography reveals the high-altitude terrain of the Fairbanks North Star Borough, dominated by a central ridge system that includes The Butte. The drainage patterns are intricate, with numerous creeks such as Gold Creek, Bonanza Creek, and Quartz Creek carving through the uplands. These names suggest the area's prospecting history and the search for minerals along the alluvial basins. The map also captures the official Base Line, marking an important surveying boundary in the Alaskan wilderness before more extensive development reached these high latitudes.
