1956 Map of Eagle B-6

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Goodpaster River winds through the northern reaches of this interior Alaskan landscape, marking a territory of complex hydrology and significant relief. Mapped in the mid-1950s using photogrammetric methods, the area is defined by the convergence of several major drainage systems, including the Eisenmenger Fork and Joseph Creek. The absence of established roads or permanent settlements in this quadrangle reflects the isolated character of the Fairbanks Meridian at this time, where land lines remained largely unsurveyed and unmarked by the Bureau of Land Management. Researchers interested in the natural topography of the region can trace the descent of Boulder Creek through the southwest, seeing how the water networks dictated the shape of the land before any modern infrastructure altered the drainage patterns.
