About this map

The West Fork Little Delta River dominates this high-altitude interior landscape, carving a wide glacial valley through the mountains south of the Tanana River. This 1952 edition reflects the region as it was surveyed shortly after the Second World War, capturing a vast drainage system defined by Dry Creek and Buchanan Creek. The lack of any roads, trails, or permanent structures highlights the isolation of this judicial division, where the only human imprints are the triangulation stations established by the Coast and Geodetic Survey. Distinctive peaks such as Red Mountain and high-altitude markers like VABM 6463 Art serve as the primary landmarks for navigation across the drainage divides of Iowa Creek and Portage Creek.
