1952 Map of Kantishna River A-6

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Sischu Mountain dominates the western interior of this remote Alaskan landscape, its peaks rising above a complex network of high-latitude drainage systems. The survey, based on 1952 aerial photography, captures the wilderness character of the region before significant modern development. The North Fork Kuskokwim River meanders through the eastern lowlands, surrounded by extensive wetlands and braided channels that characterize this part of the Yukon-Koyukuk region. In the northwest, the Sethkokna River cuts through the terrain, illustrating the dramatic transition from high elevation ridges to the saturated valley floors. This map provides a clear record of the untouched terrain as it existed in the mid-20th century, serving as a primary reference for the land's natural state.
