1949 Map of Fairbanks D-4

About this map

Chatanika River waters and the extensive Mint Lakes marshlands define this Interior Alaska landscape as it appeared in the mid-twentieth century. The transition from the low-lying wetland basins to the elevated terrain of the North Star Borough is punctuated by isolated human footprints, most notably an Indian Cemetery located near Goldstream Creek. The map documents a rugged transportation network where traditional winter travel routes like the Sled Road exist alongside the industrial spine of The Alaska Railroad.
