1952 Map of Healy D-3

About this map

Totatlanika River and the Wood River define the western and eastern boundaries of this mid-century topographic study in the Alaska interior. The landscape is dominated by a complex network of alpine drainage systems, with the waters of Healy Creek and Cody Creek carving through the high country. Isolated evidence of human activity is sparse, marked only by occasional cabins located near the riverbanks. The nomenclature of the smaller tributaries, such as All Gold Creek, Gold King Creek, and Last Chance Creek, suggests a history of prospecting and mining exploration in the foothills. High points like Keevy Peak and Needle Rock provide significant navigational landmarks in a region largely defined by its intricate system of ridges and valleys. This map, based on 1949 aerial photography, documents the area before significant modern infrastructure reached these remote drainage basins.
