1972 Map of Coleen D-2

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Strangle Woman Creek meanders through the center of this remote Alaskan landscape, defined by high-latitude hydrology and unsurveyed wilderness. The terrain is marked by a complex network of swamps and low-relief wetlands, particularly where the creek branches into smaller distributaries. In the northwestern corner, a segment of a Winter Trail provides the only evidence of overland travel, likely serving as a seasonal route when the ground and waterways were frozen. This 1972 survey also documents the North Boundary Fairbanks Meridian, a critical administrative line for the Bureau of Land Management in a region where most land lines remained predetermined but unmarked on the ground. The lack of permanent settlements or infrastructure highlights the extreme isolation of this subarctic environment at the time of mapping.
