1950 Map of Healy A-3

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Deadman Mountain dominates the central landscape of this 1950s interior Alaskan survey, part of the Alaska Matanuska Susitna Borough. This area, mapped from 1949 aerial photography, reveals a wilderness defined by its intricate drainage systems and glacial landforms before modern infrastructure reached this portion of the Talkeetna Mountains. The map highlights the sprawling course of Deadman Creek as it flows south toward Deadman Lake and Big Lake, while Brushkana Creek carves through the northern reaches. The lack of any roads or trails on this sheet at the time of the 1950 field annotation underscores the region's isolation. Researchers of Alaskan geography will find a pristine record of the high-elevation terrain and swampy lowlands, including the headwaters of Meadow Creek, documented just as the territory was beginning its transition toward statehood.
