1951 Map of Circle C-6

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

White Mountains dominate this high-latitude terrain, where the peaks of Rocky Mountain rise above a landscape defined by drainage networks and seasonal wetlands. Surveyed in the early 1950s, the map reveals an interior Alaskan wilderness largely devoid of permanent settlements, save for a lone Cabin situated along a tributary of Quartz Creek. The region is structured by the winding course of Beaver Creek and its many feeders, including Warren Creek and Mascot Creek. This era of mapping was conducted before the formalization of modern protected boundaries, though later designations like the Steese National Conservation Area and White Mountains National Recreation Area now define the land use. The topography reflects the complex drainage patterns of the Bear Creek and Yellow Creek watersheds, capturing the territory as it existed prior to the development of modern access routes.
