1956 Map of Black River B-6

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Yukon Flats dominate this landscape in the mid-1950s, revealing a complex aquatic network within the Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge. The map captures the meandering paths of the Little Black River and Grass River, alongside smaller waterways like Sucker River and Big Creek. This terrain is defined by its numerous standing water bodies, including Tiechovun Lake, Mardow Lake, and the Vunle Lakes cluster. Human presence is sparse in this subarctic wilderness, marked primarily by a lone Tractor Trail cutting through the northwestern section. This 1956 survey provides a record of the region's hydrology and land management boundaries before the significant legislative changes of the 1980s, offering a clear view of the natural drainage patterns of this vast interior Alaskan basin.
