1952 Map of Livengood C-5

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Troublesome Creek winds through the heart of this Alaskan interior landscape, its path defining a complex system of marshes and low-lying drainages. Surveyed in the early 1950s using photogrammetric methods from aerial photography, the map reveals a wilderness without roads or trails, where the drainage patterns of Hess Creek and its tributaries dictate the shape of the land. The presence of named drainages like Mastodon Creek and Richardson Creek suggests the importance of watercourses for navigation or prospecting in this part of the Yukon-Koyukuk region. In the south, the Mud Fork and Huron labels identify specific hydrological points in a terrain dominated by elevation contours and creek beds, providing a foundational record of the geography before any significant modern infrastructure reached this section of the quadrangle.
