1954 Map of Iditarod A-4

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The George River and its numerous tributaries dominate this interior landscape, providing a detailed look at the drainage patterns of the Yukon-Koyukuk region in the mid-1950s. The presence of a cabin along the riverbank suggests a point of human activity in an otherwise high-elevation wilderness defined by prominent landmarks like Lookout Mountain and the Twin Buttes. Surveying markers such as VABM 1918 Widgeon and VABM 2075 Michigan indicate the careful geodetic work required to map this complex terrain. Waterways like Little Eldorado Creek, Steamboat Creek, and the North Fork are meticulously charted, showing the seasonal swamp lands and varying elevations that characterized this part of the Alaska interior during the post-war surveying boom.
