1952 Map of Circle D-4

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The White Mountains dominate this mid-century survey, forming a stark topographical spine across the southern half of the landscape. This area of Alaska, mapped through 1951 aerial photography and field-annotated shortly thereafter, reveals an intricate network of drainage basins. The North Fork Preacher Creek and the main channel of Preacher Creek wind through the lower elevations, while Discovery Creek cuts through the northern reaches. Survey points like VABM 3468 Marr and VABM 3538 Wolf mark the highest elevations in the range. The map illustrates a complete absence of roads or established trails at this time, highlighting the isolation of these interior highlands during the 1950s.
