1950 Map of Fairbanks C-4

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Tanana River dominates this interior Alaska landscape, weaving a braided path through the lowlands south of the Fairbanks North Star Borough line. This 1950 survey, updated with 1972 aerial revisions, documents a critical transportation corridor where The Alaska Railroad and the Fairbanks Nenana Road parallel the northern hills. The map captures the logistical infrastructure of the mid-century, from the isolated Cabin sites along the riverbanks to the expansive Blair Lake Air Force Range and the Winter Trail navigating the terrain. Tributaries like Little Goldstream Creek and the Wood River feed into the Tanana, defining the drainage patterns of this subarctic region before the extensive modern developments of the late 20th century.
