1956 Map of Coleen A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Porcupine River snakes through this remote interior landscape, carving a deep Canyon as it flows toward the west. This mid-century survey captures the region as part of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, where the river network dictated human movement and settlement. Traces of early habitation are visible at Old Rampart and Old Camp along the riverbanks, likely serving as seasonal sites or trading points in this subarctic wilderness. The terrain is defined by distinctive landmarks like Howling Dog Rock and Red Gate, while the Salmon Trout River and Howling Dog Creek drain the surrounding uplands. Local hydrology is further marked by the Fern Lakes and Smith Lake, illustrating a complex web of waterways that supported the area's subsistence and transport long before modern infrastructure reached the Yukon-Koyukuk region.
