1952 Map of Holy Cross A-5

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Ilivit Mountains dominate the southeastern portion of this 1952 topographic study, showing a landscape defined by sharp elevation shifts and an intricate drainage network. In the northern reaches, the Nageethluk River winds across the terrain, joined by smaller tributaries like Tom Gray Creek. The presence of a solitary Cabin in the south provides a rare indicator of human presence in this expanse, likely serving as a seasonal base for hunting or trapping. This survey, based on 1951 aerial photography, captures the interior's hydrological patterns before later revisions, including the flow of the Stuyahok River and Kako Creek. The lack of established road networks underscores the isolation of this region during the mid-twentieth century, where movement was primarily dictated by watercourses and natural ridges.
