1954 Map of Lime Hills B-6

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Stony River snakes across the southern reaches of this interior Alaskan landscape, a region defined by its significant glacial-fed waterways and isolated high points. The northern boundary is marked by the Swift River and its North Fork, which cut through a complex network of marshes and low-lying drainages. Between these two major river systems, the terrain rises sharply toward Tough, a prominent upland feature that contrasts with the surrounding wetlands. This 1954 data, compiled from aerial photography, records a remote wilderness where landforms like Salmon Berry Lake and Bump serve as the primary landmarks in an area otherwise devoid of established roads or permanent settlements during the mid-century period. The drainage pattern of Can Creek further illustrates the intricate hydrology of this subarctic environment prior to modern development.
