1949 Map of Fairbanks D-1

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

North Pole serves as a focal point for this interior Alaskan landscape, situated just north of the Tanana River and the braided waters of Chena Slough. Based on a 1949 survey, the map illustrates a region transitioning from raw wilderness to early mid-century development. The Alaska Railroad and the Alaska Highway cut through the southern portion of the sheet, providing vital transport links between the developing settlement of Highland Park and the specialized airfield at Bradley Sky Ranch.
