1958 Map of Lime Hills C-1

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

South Fork Kuskokwim River flows through this interior wilderness, providing a primary drainage route for the high mountain valleys during the late 1950s. The landscape is defined by the steep relief of the western Alaska Range, where the Styx River carves deep north-south passages through the terrain. Mapping was conducted via photogrammetric methods from aerial photographs taken between 1953 and 1957 by the U. S. Geological Survey, revealing a region with no established roads or trails at the time of the 1958 field annotation. Small bodies of water like Jimmy Lake and the drainage of Crystal Creek suggest a landscape largely shaped by glacial activity and seasonal melt. This survey captures a moment before modern infrastructure, documenting the raw hydrography and topography of the Bethel area.
