About this map

The South Fork Kuskokwim River dominates this interior Alaska landscape as it carves through the Teocalli Mountains. The river's path is constrained by significant terrain, most notably at Hellsgate, where the water narrows between steep elevations. The survey captures a truly remote wilderness where the only evidence of human activity is a single Cabin located near the mouth of Hartman stream. To the east, the Styx River flows through a broad Valley, paralleled by the elevations of Mount Rich and Twin Sisters Peak. The map illustrates a network of glacial and mountain runoff, with high-altitude water bodies like Flahart Lake and Styr Lake feeding into the Ptarmigan Creek and Johnson Creek systems. This topography reflects the unsurveyed and unmarked nature of the territory at the time, with land lines predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management.
