1956 Map of Charley River

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

The Yukon River carves a massive path through this interior Alaskan territory, serving as the primary corridor for remote life during the mid-1950s. This survey illustrates a landscape of isolation punctuated by critical river-side outposts like the Woodchopper Roadhouse and the small settlement of Nation at the confluence of the Yukon and Fourth of July Creek. Evidence of the region’s extractive history is visible through the Placer Mine near Woodchopper Creek, supported by the Woodchopper Airstrip for seasonal access.
