1958 Map of Lime Hills C-8

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Swift River and the Gagaryah River dominate this interior Alaskan landscape, which was mapped via photogrammetric methods from aerial photography taken in 1953. The terrain is characterized by complex braided river systems and an extensive network of unnamed ponds and marshes across the Seward Meridian. This 1958 edition, later published by the Geological Survey in 1965, documents a period before significant infrastructure reached this remote region. The map displays land lines that represent unsurveyed and unmarked locations predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management, reflecting the early administrative efforts to organize this wilderness. Without roads, trails, or settlements indicated, the map serves as a primary record of the natural hydrology and topography of the Lime Hills quadrangle as it stood in the mid-20th century.
