1954 Map of Kateel River D-5

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Continental Divide defines the primary drainage patterns across this interior Alaskan landscape, which was mapped via photogrammetric methods from aerial surveys in the early 1950s. The terrain transitions from higher elevations along the divide into a complex network of lowland marshes and small ponds in the eastern portion of the quadrangle. In the southeastern corner, the South Fork Huslia River carves through the terrain, representing the principal waterway of the region. This survey captures a moment in the mid-20th century before any significant roads or trails were established in this section of the Yukon-Koyukuk region, reflecting the immense isolation of the Alaskan interior at the time.
