1951 Map of Livengood B-2

About this map

White Mountains and the northern extent of the Yukon Flats National Monument dominate this 1951 topographic study. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Beaver Creek and the Tatalina River, where remote aviation outposts like Hermans Landing Strip and Shebal Landing Strip provided essential access for interior Alaskan travel. The presence of isolated structures, such as the Borealis-Le Fevre Cabin, suggests a geography of subsistence and early resource exploration. Transport through this interior region relied heavily on seasonal routes, evidenced by the White Mtn Trail (Winter) and several nameless pack trails that traverse the divide between Wickersham Creek and the high point at VABM Sham 3218.
