1952 Map of Livengood B-5

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Sawtooth Mountain anchors this subarctic interior Alaskan landscape, surveyed shortly after the Second World War. The topography is defined by the winding Tolovana River and its numerous tributaries, including Starvation Creek, Chocolate Creek, and Moose Creek. These watercourses provided the primary transit corridors for the region's early 20th-century exploration and subsistence activities. Evidence of human presence is sparse but specific, with scattered Cabin and Cabins sites linked by a series of primitive Tractor Trails. A small Landing Strip near Montana Creek highlights the essential role of aviation in accessing this remote terrain. The land lines shown represent unsurveyed locations predetermined by the Bureau of Land Management, reflecting a period when much of the Alaskan interior remained a vast, officially unorganized frontier.
