About this map

The Trans-Alaska Pipeline cuts through the interior wilderness on this 1954 survey, updated with 1975 revisions to document the massive energy infrastructure project during its building phase. This industrial corridor runs parallel to the Elliott Highway, passing through a landscape defined by the drainage basins of the Tolovana River and Tatalina River.

A Pumping Station is situated along the pipeline route south of Amy Dome, while remnants of earlier land use appear at Tailings on Steel Creek. The map documents a period of rapid transformation, where traditional backcountry access—represented by scattered Cabin and Cabins locations—meets the modern engineering of The Trans-Alaska Pipeline. The terrain is punctuated by landmarks such as Globe and numerous watercourses like State Creek and O'Brien Creek, reflecting the complex hydrology of the Yukon-Koyukuk region.
