1952 Map of Kateel River A-5

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Gisasa River and its tributary, the Honhosa River, dominate this interior Alaskan landscape as it appeared in the mid-1950s. The topography was mapped from 1952 aerial photographs and 1956 multiplex methods, showing a region defined entirely by its drainage systems and high points. Survey markers like VABM 2152 Nap and VABM 1919 Rain provide specific geodetic control points for researchers tracing early mapping efforts in the Fourth Judicial Division. There are no roads or trails indicated on the sheet, reflecting the area's isolation and reliance on natural waterways for movement. The map captures the intricate relief of the hills surrounding the river basins before any modern development or expanded terrestrial access reached this portion of the Kateel River quadrangle.
