1950 Map of Fairbanks A-3

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Tatlanika Creek dominates this interior landscape, providing a central drainage for the high elevations of the Alaska Range captured during the mid-century. The presence of multiple Placer Mine sites along the creek bed and its tributaries, such as Grubstake Creek and Gold King Creek, points to the region's active mineral extraction history. Near one of these operations, a Landing Strip and a Ditch reflect the specialized infrastructure required for remote mining logistics in this period.
