1992 Map of Fairbanks D-2 NW

About this map

Goldstream Creek and its many tributaries, including Happy Creek and O'Connor Creek, define the drainage patterns northwest of Fairbanks during the early 1990s. The landscape is a complex mix of subarctic wetlands and interior Alaskan uplands, marked by an Old Railroad Grade and an extensive network of winter trails. Local development is concentrated along corridors like Ballaine Road and Miller Hill Road, where the Pearl Creek Sch and Northern Lights Memorial Cem serve the growing community. Scientific and conservation interests are prominent, featuring the Eielson Alaska Long Period Array Research Site and the southern reaches of the Creamer's Field State Migratory Waterfowl Refuge. Mining activity remains visible through various Prospects and an Open Pit Mine near the western edge of the survey.
