1958 Map of Lime Hills C-1

About this map

The South Fork Kuskokwim River defines the western edge of this interior landscape, marking a significant drainage route through the northern foothills of the Alaska Range. This area, mapped in the late 1950s using photogrammetric methods from aerial photography, reveals a wilderness dominated by steep glacial valleys and unnamed peaks. Parallel to the Kuskokwim drainage, the Styx River cuts a deep path through the center of the sheet, eventually winding towards the south. Evidence of the region's hydrologic complexity is found in smaller features like Jimmy Lake in the north and the headwaters of Crystal Creek in the southeast. The map illustrates a transitional terrain where high-elevation glacial ice and permanent snowfields give way to river-carved valleys, prior to any significant modern development or established road infrastructure.
