1954 Map of Circle A-5

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Chena Hot Springs serves as the primary focal point in this 1954 survey of the Alaskan interior, situated where Monument Creek joins the North Fork Chena River. The area is defined by a dense network of high-altitude drainages, with the Airstrip and several isolated Cabin structures indicating the remote character of human presence during the mid-1950s. The landscape is dominated by significant elevations such as Chena Dome in the west and Mt Ryan to the north, which anchor the complex topography of the Alaska-Fourth Judicial Division. This map captures the region's hydrography in detail, tracing the winding paths of Angel Creek, Frozenfoot Creek, and Olympia Creek as they cut through the rising terrain. The mapping reflects a period of specialized aerial surveys by the Usgs, providing an exact view of the wilderness before later modern developments altered the access to these geothermal and mountain features.
