1956 Map of Eagle D-5

About this map

Hosford stands as a primary named settlement site within this interior Alaskan landscape, which was field annotated in the mid-1950s. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Charley River and its numerous tributaries, including Hosford Creek and Essie Creek. This region reflects a period of transition, where evidence of earlier habitation or prospecting is noted by a Cabin (Ruins) located near the Base Line. The intricate drainage system, featuring Godge Creek and Copper Creek, suggests a landscape shaped by hydraulic action and seasonal flow. This survey provides a look at the wilderness before modern development, capturing the specific locations of remote shelters and waterways that served as the primary landmarks for those traversing the Alaskan interior during the postwar era.
