1949 Map of Fairbanks D-4

About this map

The Chatanika River and the vast wetland complex of the Minto Lakes dominate this interior Alaska landscape as it was documented in 1949. This era shows a transition in northern transportation, where The Alaska Railroad cuts through the southern terrain, connecting the small settlement of Dunbar and its Section House to the broader territory. The presence of a Sled Road alongside the rails highlights the reliance on seasonal trails for movement across the marshy lowlands near Goldstream Creek.
