1956 Map of Charley River B-3

About this map

Yukon River waters dominate the southern portion of this mid-century survey, cutting a wide path through the eastern interior of Alaska. The confluence of the Kandik River and the Yukon River serves as a primary geographic anchor, showing the drainage patterns of several smaller tributaries like Sevenmile Creek and Mardow Creek. Rising above the riverbanks, the prominent Kathul Mountain provides a significant landmark in an otherwise unpopulated wilderness area. This 1950s documentation reflects the land before modern development, noting swampy lowlands and intricate island formations within the river channels. The terrain is marked by numerous named waterways including Washington Creek, Glenn Creek, and Logan Creek, which reflect the local naming conventions used by early surveyors and prospectors in the region.
