1951 Map of Gulkana D-6

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The Maclaren River dominates this sub-arctic landscape, winding through a glacial valley where the South Boundary Fairbanks Meridian intersects the wilderness. This 1951 survey, with minor revisions noted through 1977, documents a territory defined by high-elevation survey markers and remote outpost structures. A solitary cabin sits on a northern bend of the river, providing a rare sign of human presence in a terrain otherwise characterized by its hydrologic and topographic features. To the south, Monsoon Lake and the headwaters of Moose Creek are flanked by prominent peaks like Vabm 4224 Horn and Vabm 5275 Laren. The western edge is defined by Clearwater Creek, which flows through an area of swamps and low relief, illustrating the drainage patterns of the Matanuska-Susitna region before modern development.
