1954 Map of Lime Hills D-5

About this map

Gagaryah River snakes through a complex corridor of hills and drainage basins in this 1954 topographic study of the Lime Hills quadrangle. The landscape is defined by the convergence of major waterways, including the broad path of the Big River to the northeast and the headwaters of the North Fork Swift River at the southern edge of the map. This area of Alaska, part of the Seward Meridian, shows no established road network or permanent settlements at the time of the survey, reflecting a wild interior topography. The map illustrates an intricate system of unnamed mountain peaks and valleys, highlighting the natural transition between high-elevation relief and the marshy lowlands surrounding the river forks.
