1952 Map of Kantishna River C-5

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Chitanana Mountains dominate the eastern half of this interior Alaskan landscape, characterized by complex ridgelines and high-elevation topography recorded during mid-century aerial surveys. In the western lowlands, the Chitanana River winds through a vast network of wetlands and tundra ponds. This drainage system includes Redlands Lake, which sits at the base of the foothills where the upland slopes meet the marshy valley floor. The map reflects a moment in 1952 when the region remained largely undeveloped, with no roads or structures indicated, focusing entirely on the natural hydrography and terrain of the Yukon-Koyukuk region.
