1952 Map of Circle A-4

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Far Mountain stands as the central topographic focal point in this 1952 survey of the Fairbanks North Star region. The landscape is defined by the convergence of the North Fork Chena River and the East Fork Chena River, which carve deep drainage patterns through the high terrain. In this era, the area remained largely inaccessible by road, with the map noting that no roads or trails existed in the region at the time of the 1951 aerial photography. Small, isolated landmarks like Jones Pass and family-named watercourses such as Munson Creek and La More Creek provide the only markers of human identification in an otherwise unsurveyed wilderness. Geologists and local historians can use this map to trace the original, unaltered hydrology of the Monument Creek and Rosebud Creek basins before later development or natural shifts changed these remote corridors.
