1951 Map of Healy D-5

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Lignite and the nearby Diamond Coal Mine serve as industrial anchors in this subarctic corridor during the early 1950s, where the Alaska Railroad follows the path of the Nenana River. The map reveals a transition from industrial activity to protected wilderness, as the southern portion enters Mt McKinley National Park. Along the Savage River, a Ranger Cabin and various survey points like VABM 3266 Savage mark human presence within the expansive park boundaries. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, rising from the river valleys to Mt Healy and Primrose Ridge. Water sources such as Otto Lake and Eightmile Lake dot the landscape between drainages like Panguingue Creek and Slate Creek, illustrating the complex hydrology of this interior Alaska region.
