1956 Map of Coleen A-6

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Chandalar Creek defines the central axis of this interior Alaskan wilderness, as mapped from 1955 aerial photography. The terrain is characterized by a complex network of glacial thaw lakes and wetlands within the Fairbanks Meridian, appearing here during the mid-1950s. While most of the map depicts unsurveyed and unmarked land lines as determined by the Bureau of Land Management, notable bodies of water including Big Rat Lake and Mink Lake serve as the primary landmarks in an otherwise feature-sparse landscape. The map provides a precise record of the hydrological patterns of the northern drainage basin, showing the meandering path of the creek and the dense cluster of unnamed ponds that populate the region between the Porcupine and Coleen River systems.
