1950 Map of Healy B-5

About this map

Foggy Pass and Broad Pass anchor this high-altitude corridor where transportation infrastructure follows the natural breaks in the Alaska Range. The mid-century development of the Alaska Railroad and the George Parks Highway is clearly visible, tracing a route through the heart of what would become Denali National Park. This survey documents the intersection of modern transit and wilderness, notably around Summit Lake, where a CAA Station and aviation-related markers like VABM Summit Astro hint at the area's importance for early bush pilots and air traffic.
