1952 Map of Healy D-5

About this map

Mt McKinley National Park and the northern slopes of the Alaska Range dominate this mid-century survey, revealing a landscape defined by the convergence of high-altitude terrain and industrial extraction. The Alaska Railroad tracks follow the corridor of the Nenana River, providing the essential link for the Lignite settlement and the nearby Diamond Coal Mine. The map documents a transition from the wilderness of the park interior—marked by the Savage River and a remote Ranger Cabin—to the emerging infrastructure of the Nenana valley, including a small Airstrip and several miles of Tractor Trail.
