1951 Map of Gulkana C-6

About this map

Tyone Village sits along the northern shores of Tyone Lake, a central landmark in this subarctic landscape mapped during the early 1950s. The region is defined by a dense network of wetlands and drainage systems, where the meandering Tyone River carves through low-lying terrain to the west while the West Fork Gulkana River and Moose Cr dominate the northeastern corner. This period of documentation by the Geological Survey captured the area before significant modern development, focusing on the natural watercourses and the modest elevation markers that guided early travelers and surveyors.
