1954 Map of Healy B-6

About this map

Mt McKinley National Park dominates the landscape of this mid-century survey, defined by the massive glacial systems and high mountain passes that shape the northern interior. The map illustrates a transitional wilderness where the Polychrome Glacier and West Fork Glacier feed the headwaters of major drainages like the Chulitna River and Toklat River. While much of the terrain is characterized by high-elevation features such as Divide Mountain and Easy Pass, human activity is anchored by industrial extraction. The presence of the Dunkle Mine near Camp Creek provides a specific point of interest for researchers tracing the history of mining in the region. The survey also captures the exact National Park Boundary as it stood during the 1950s, showing the intersection of protected land and the resource-rich valleys of Costello Creek and Colorado Creek.
