1953 Map of Kantishna River D-1

About this map

The Tanana River dominates this interior Alaskan landscape as it meanders through a network of sloughs and islands, including Jennie M Island and Junction Island. This 1950s survey shows a region defined by its seasonal access and water-based transportation, where the Winter Trail provides essential overland passage across the frozen terrain. To the north, the Dugan Hills rise above the drainage basins of Baker Creek and the Zitziana River. Significant for local history, the map identifies the small settlement of Baker near Giroux Bluff and an isolated Cabin to the southeast. The survey provides a clear look at the intricate wetlands surrounding Kindanina Lake and Iksgiza Lake, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Tanana Valley before modern development altered these remote corridors.
