1972 Map of Coleen D-3

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Coleen River dominates this portion of the Alaskan interior, its braided channel weaving through an expansive wetland complex at the start of the 1970s. The landscape is defined by the hydrologic relationship between the main river and tributaries like Strangle Woman Creek and Marten Cr. This 1972 topography, mapped from aerial photography, records a wilderness prior to significant modern development, where human passage is largely represented by a single Winter Trail cutting across the northeastern terrain. The map also delineates the North Boundary Fairbanks Meridian, a critical surveying line for land management in this remote region. This sheet captures a snapshot of the subarctic environment where low-relief swamp lands meet the rising contours of the surrounding highlands.
