1954 Map of Livengood B-3

About this map

Tolovana River and the Tatalina River define this interior Alaska landscape, captured just as mid-century infrastructure began to traverse the bush. The Elliott Highway snakes through the center of the sheet, providing a vital land link across a terrain of prominent peaks like Amy Dome and Globe. The mapping reveals the area's resource-driven geography, where clusters of Cabins and isolated Cabin structures follow the drainage of gold-bearing waters like Ester Creek and Cleary Creek. Evidence of placer mining is visible through Tailings marked near the headwaters, while numerous named drainages such as Steel Creek, Wilber Creek, and Slate Creek illustrate the fine-grained topographical detail used by prospectors and surveyors in the Fourth Judicial Division.
