1950 Map of Healy D-3

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Totatlanika River and Healy River systems dominate this interior landscape, which was meticulously mapped using aerial photographs from the late 1940s. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations like Usibelli Peak, Mount Lathrop, and Keevy Peak, which overlook a network of drainages including the evocative All Gold Creek and Last Chance Creek. The presence of these named creeks and Brinckman Gulch suggests a history of localized exploration or resource prospecting in the valleys tucked between the ridges. Small human outposts are rare in this high-relief environment, though a remote Cabin is noted near the confluence of Cody Creek and the Wood River. Other distinctive landmarks like Needle Rock and Needle serve as navigation points within the drainage basins of Dexter Creek and Surprise Creek.
