1954 Map of Iditarod C-6

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Big Yetna River and the Little Yetna River dominate this interior Alaskan landscape as it was documented in the early 1950s. The terrain is defined by complex river meanders and extensive marshlands, illustrating the difficult geography of the Yukon-Koyukuk region. Evidence of human passage and temporary settlement is sparse but significant, represented by a Winter Trail cutting through the wilderness and a Cabin (Aband) located near the western edge of the survey. The inclusion of the Vabm 747 vertical angle benchmark reflects the precise surveying work conducted by the Geological Survey during this era. This map captures a moment when travel in this area relied heavily on seasonal trails and the natural corridors provided by the river systems, before modern infrastructure altered the reach of the interior.
