1952 Map of Kateel River B-4

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Koyukuk River dominates this mid-century landscape, carving a complex path of oxbows and secondary channels across the eastern half of the map. This intricate fluvial system includes Three Day Slough, which mirrors the river's winding course through the low-lying basin. To the west, the terrain rises into the uplands, drained by the Kateel River and the Honhosa River. These watercourses reveal a wilderness accessible primarily by water and winter routes, such as the Winter Trail that cuts through the southern reaches. Evidence of human presence is sparse but specific, marked by Tobys Cabin along the riverbank and clusters of unnamed Cabins further north. The convergence of the Gisasa River and the Batzla River at the southern boundary highlights the vital role of these tributaries in navigating the vast Alaskan interior during the early 1950s.
