1952 Map of Holy Cross D-6

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

East Fork Andreafsky River dominates this interior Alaskan landscape, its winding course carving through the uplands during the early 1950s. Mapped by the Army Map Service using aerial photography, the terrain is defined by complex contour patterns and drainage systems that feed into the main river valley. This specific area, part of the Kusilvak region, shows a primitive landscape where the hydrology was the primary factor in local geography before more modern developments. The concentration of vegetation along the riverbanks contrast with the higher, exposed elevations, providing a clear look at the natural environmental corridors of the Alaskan bush during this post-war era of aerial surveying.
