1954 Map of Healy B-6

About this map

Denali National Park and the expansive Denali Wilderness dominate this Alaskan landscape, captured during the mid-century as the region's wilderness character was being formally codified. The terrain is defined by massive glacial features, including the Polychrome Glacier and West Fork Glacier, which feed a complex network of waterways like the Chulitna River and the braided Toklat River. A solitary industrial mark is found at the Dunkle Mine near the southeastern boundary, situated along Costello Creek. This site, accompanied by a small Landing Strip, represents a rare pocket of resource extraction in a territory otherwise characterized by high peaks such as Divide Mountain and Mount Pendleton. The map also traces the Matanuska-Susitna Borough line, illustrating the intersection of administrative boundaries with the natural divide of Easy Pass.
