1952 Map of Gulkana C-6

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Tyone Village sits along the southern shore of Tyone Lake, serving as a focal point for this interior Alaskan landscape mapped in the early 1950s. The region is defined by a complex network of glacial lakes and the meandering course of the Tyone River, which flows northwest through the central portion of the quadrangle. To the north, the West Fork Gulkana River cuts across the terrain, illustrating the intricate drainage patterns of the Copper River Basin. Surveyors established high-altitude control points such as VABM 3531 Tyone and VABM 2680 Wonderly to manage the challenging topography. The map reveals a wilderness largely devoid of modern roads, emphasizing the reliance on natural water corridors and traditional settlement locations for navigation and residency during this era.
