1951 Map of Healy D-2

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Wood River and its complex network of tributaries define this 1951 survey of the Alaska interior, captured during a period of extensive aerial mapping. The landscape is characterized by the high elevations of Mystic Mountain and Anderson Mtn, where numerous drainages like Mystic Creek and Kansas Creek carve through the terrain. A solitary Cabin located along the river indicates the sparse human presence in this region during the early 1950s, likely serving as a waypoint for travelers or hunters. The eastern portion of the map is dominated by the headwaters of the West Fork Little Delta River, illustrating the glacial and snow-melt hydrology that feeds the larger Alaskan river systems. This sheet provides a detailed view of an unsurveyed wilderness prior to significant modern development, with the Fairbanks Meridian serving as the primary longitudinal reference point for the region's land divisions.
