1952 Map of Healy B-1

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The Susitna River dominates this mid-century Alaskan interior landscape, shown here as it appeared in the early 1950s. Flowing from the expansive icy mass of the Susitna Glacier, the river creates a complex braided network through the valley. The map documents a transition from massive ice fields to high-altitude drainage systems, with the West Fork Glacier also contributing significant meltwater to the regional watershed. Local elevation markers provide essential data for this wilderness area, including the survey points at VABM Sitna 5673 and VABM Teddy 6092. These landmarks and the many tributaries like Boulder Creek and the East Fork illustrate the hydrological patterns and high-relief topography characteristic of the Third Judicial Division before significant modern development reached this part of the Alaskan wilderness.
