About this map

The White Mountains dominate this 1954 topographic study within the Alaska-Fourth Judicial Division, revealing a landscape where high ridgelines overlook a complex drainage network. The serpentine course of Beaver Creek carves through the central terrain, supported by tributaries such as Fossil Creek and Montana Creek. These waterways, along with the Tatalina River in the northwest, provided the primary corridors for movement in an area largely devoid of formal roads.

Isolated human activity is evidenced by several remote Cabin sites and an Airstrip situated near a bend in Beaver Creek. In the southwest, Wickersham Creek flows through the valleys, while the survey identifies high-altitude survey points like VABM 46ham 3218. The presence of a simple Trail in the southeast corner further emphasizes the reliance on rudimentary paths for navigating this interior wilderness during the mid-20th century.
