1952 Map of Kateel River A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Natlaratlen River winds through this interior Alaskan wilderness, recorded here as it appeared in the early 1950s. This survey, compiled from 1952 aerial photography and 1956 multiplex topographic methods, depicts a vast landscape defined by intricate wetland systems and hundreds of unnamed lakes and ponds. The lack of roads or trails in this area at the time of publication underscores its isolation within the Alaska-Fourth Judicial Division. The contour lines reveal a complex drainage basin where the river system carves through a mosaic of muskeg and low-lying hills, illustrating the natural hydrological patterns of the Yukon-Koyukuk region before any modern industrial footprint or significant infrastructure reached this portion of the interior.
