1956 Map of Black River D-2

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Salmon Trout River flows through the southeastern portion of this Interior Alaska landscape, which is defined by an intricate network of waterways and high-elevation terrain. This mid-century survey reflects the wilderness of the region shortly before statehood, emphasizing the drainage patterns of Kevinjik Creek and David Creek as they wind through the western reaches. The only fixed surveying monument noted is VABM Digit 2607, marking a high point in a territory otherwise absent of roads or permanent settlements. The map's contour lines illustrate a complex topography of ridges and valleys that dictate the course of the local river systems, providing an essential record for those studying the hydrologic history and remote geography of the Yukon-Koyukuk region.
