1954 Map of Lime Hills C-7

About this map

Gagaryah River meanders across this interior Alaskan landscape, documented through 1953 aerial photography and 1954 field annotation. The terrain is defined by the convergence of major glacial drainage systems, most notably where the Gagaryah joins the much larger Swift River in the southwestern quadrant. The mapping reflects a period of intensive geophysical survey by the Geological Survey and the Bureau of Land Management, focusing on unsurveyed and unmarked land lines. This specific area shows a complex network of wetlands and swamps interspersed with high relief ridges, providing a detailed record of the hydrological patterns before any modern infrastructure altered the natural flow of these glacial waters.
