1949 Map of Healy C-3

About this map

Yanert Fork dominates the drainage patterns across this interior Alaskan landscape, which was recorded during a 1949 aerial survey. This area is characterized by high-elevation drainage systems where Grizzly Creek and Dean Creek flow through terrain that remained largely unsurveyed on the ground at the time of publication. The Bureau of Land Management predetermined land lines for this portion of the Fairbanks Meridian, though no roads or trails were documented in this wilderness. Tributaries such as Dick Creek and Moose Creek create a complex hydrological network typical of the Alaska Range's northern slopes. The map also records smaller named features like Edgar Cr and Louis Creek, providing essential reference points for early mid-century surveyors and wilderness navigators.
