1949 Map of Fairbanks A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Japan Hills anchor this interior Alaskan terrain, where the wide course of the Wood River meets the Fairbanks Meridian. Surveyed in the late 1940s, the map reveals a landscape defined by its waterways and remote navigation points, including a solitary Cabin and infrastructure such as a Radio Tower and Landing Strip near Gold King Creek. These markers suggest a period of early aviation and telegraphy reliance in the Tanana Valley backcountry.
