1954 Map of Candle A-1

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Ungalik River meanders across the central landscape of this western Alaska interior survey, joined by several tributaries including Caribou Creek as the waters flow through a complex system of drainage basins. The topography is defined by the high ground between the Yukon and Koyukuk systems, featuring prominent landmarks such as Traverse Peak and VABM High Peak 2838. To the east, the Kateel River creates a distinct corridor through the hills. This 1954 data, captured by photogrammetric methods from aerial photographs, illustrates a landscape primarily defined by its hydrology and elevations rather than human infrastructure, as the sheet notes no roads or trails existed in the area at the time of field annotation.
