1949 Map of Healy A-6

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

The West Fork Chulitna River and the Alaska Railroad corridor form the structural spine of this high-altitude landscape. Based on photogrammetric surveys from 1949, the map reveals the critical intersection of transportation and industry in the Alaska Range. Remote outposts like Honolulu and Hurricane appear as tiny nodes along the rail line, serving as vital links between the interior and the coast. The northern portion of the quadrangle is dominated by the Denali National Park and Preserve and the massive Eldridge Glacier, where the ice and mountains dictate the path of water and people.
