1952 Map of Healy A-3

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Deadman Mountain rises as the central topographical anchor for this high-altitude interior region, which was mapped from 1949 aerial photography. The terrain is defined by a significant drainage network where Brushkana Creek and Deadman Creek carve through the landscape. This 1952 survey provides a clear view of the Fourth Judicial Division Third Judicial Division approximate boundary, which bisects the quadrangle horizontally. The presence of Deadman Lake and Big Lake in the southern reaches, alongside the marshes of Meadow Creek, indicates a complex watershed in this portion of the Alaska Range. The map illustrates a transitional subarctic environment just before mid-century, documented by the U.S. Geological Survey using multiplex methods to translate aerial photography into precise contour data.
