1954 Map of Kateel River D-3

About this map

The Huslia River snakes across this interior landscape, defining a complex corridor of oxbows and marshy lowlands typical of the Alaskan wilderness before statehood. The river's meandering course dominates the central and northern sections of the terrain, while the Nulima River cuts across the southeastern corner. This mid-century survey reveals a transition between dense wetland systems and slightly elevated ground, notably seen in the cluster of the Birch Lakes. Mapped from aerial photography taken in 1952 and field-annotated in 1954, the sheet captures a raw, unsettled environment with no roads or trails recorded, emphasizing the hydrological focus of early topographical work in the Yukon-Koyukuk region.
