1956 Map of Chandalar

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Chandalar Mine and numerous other Gold Mines are central to this mid-century survey, illustrating the remote extractive industry of the Brooks Range region. The landscape is dominated by the complex drainage systems of the North Fork Chandalar River, Middle Fork Chandalar River, and East Fork Chandalar River. Small settlements such as Chandalar, Caro, and Venetie appear along these water routes, often connected only by a Winter Trail or a specific Landing Area. The map also delineates the eastern portion of the Indian Reservation near the Chuttoh Bluffs, providing a record of land use and indigenous territory during this period of territorial administration. High peaks like Sukakpak Mountain and Snowden Mountain frame the river valleys, marking a terrain where navigation depended heavily on mountain passes like Tobin Pass and Linda Creek Pass.
