1952 Map of Kantishna River D-6

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Boney Creek and its tributary, Little Boney Creek, dominate this interior Alaskan landscape in the Fourth Judicial Division as it appeared in the early 1950s. The map illustrates a dense network of muskeg and wetlands, characterized by hundreds of small lakes and ponds scattered across the low-lying terrain. This 1:63,360 scale survey provides a detailed look at the drainage patterns of the Boney Creek basin before any modern development or roads reached this segment of the Yukon-Koyukuk region. The absence of named human settlements or structures underscores the wilderness character of the area, where the complex aquatic system and subtle elevation shifts are the primary features of interest for those studying the historical natural geography of the Kantishna River vicinity.
