USGS Topo · Published 1954About this map
The Tanana River serves as the central artery for this interior Alaskan region, where the Richardson Highway meets the early path of the Alaska Hwy. This 1951 compilation shows the strategic transition from river-based transit to the burgeoning road network of the post-war era. Significant landmarks of the military and civilian infrastructure of the time are visible, including the Ladd Air Force Base Bombing and Gunnery Range and the Big Delta Airport.
