1971 Map of Chandalar D-5

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

North Fork Chandalar River winds through this northern interior landscape, representing a remote corridor in the Brooks Range foothills during the early 1970s. The region is defined by its complex drainage network, where the river meets significant tributaries such as Quartz Creek and Robert Creek. To the southwest, the Mathews River carves through the terrain, while Big Spruce Creek flows further south. This 1971 survey serves as a fundamental record of the wilderness before significant modern infrastructure, captured just as the North Boundary Fairbanks Meridian was being formally documented through photogrammetric methods. The map illustrates a landscape devoid of established roads or trails, emphasizing the primary role of these watercourses for navigation and geography in this part of Alaska.
