1950 Map of Healy A-3

About this map

Deadman Mountain dominates the central landscape of this 1950s Alaskan interior survey, rising as a prominent topographical anchor amidst a complex network of waterways. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Brushkana Creek to the north and the extensive reach of Deadman Creek, which flows southward through the high country. At the southern edge of the sheet, Deadman Lake and Big Lake mark a lower elevation basin, highlighting the dramatic vertical relief of the region. The absence of roads or trails, as noted in the margin, emphasizes the undeveloped and primitive character of the Matanuska-Susitna area at mid-century. A single survey marker, VABM 4825 Gold, indicates the precision of the photogrammetric methods used to capture this high-altitude terrain before modern infrastructure reached this part of the territory.
