1954 Map of Lime Hills B-8

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Stony River meanders across this interior Alaskan landscape, a region defined by its lack of established roads or trails during the mid-1950s. The topographic detail, mapped by the Army Map Service, shows a complex network of wetlands and small lakes flanking the primary river channel. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the Stink River winds through the lowland flats before the elevation rises sharply into the Lime Hills. These landforms provide a stark vertical contrast to the braided drainage patterns of the river basins. The survey captures an era when the land lines remained largely unsurveyed and unmarked, reflecting the remote nature of the Seward Meridian at the time of the 1953 and 1957 aerial photography.
