1973 Map of Fairbanks A-6

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Teklanika River flows northward through this Interior Alaska landscape, flanked by the braided channels of the Sushana River and the Toklat River. Based on aerial photography from the early 1950s, the map reveals a wilderness largely devoid of permanent settlement, characterized by the dynamic movement of water across wide gravel beds. The presence of the Winter Trail snaking through the northern and eastern sections suggests the seasonal nature of travel in this region, where frozen ground once provided the primary means of passage through the lowlands. Survey markers like VABM Nika and VABM Rick provide the only human-made navigational points in a terrain dominated by glacial drainage patterns and unmarked land lines predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management.
