1950 Map of Fairbanks C-3

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Tanana River dominates this Alaskan landscape, captured during a period of significant military and scientific footprint in the mid-20th century. Its braided channels and shifting bars create a complex network of waterways, including the Sevenmile Slough and Whiskey Island Slough, which weave around named landmasses like Sam Charley Island and Hadley Island. The vast extent of the Fort Wainwright Military Reservation occupies much of the southern and eastern portions of the map, illustrating the strategic importance of the Fairbanks region during the early Cold War era.
