1952 Map of Livengood C-5

About this map

Hess Creek and its many meandering tributaries define this interior Alaskan landscape as it appeared during the 1950s. The terrain is dominated by the complex drainage systems of Troublesome Creek and Richardson Creek, which carve through the unsurveyed wilderness of the Yukon-Koyukuk region. This specific era shows the early infrastructure related to the Haul Road TAPS, a critical precursor to the development of the trans-Alaska pipeline corridor. Small-scale industrial and transport features are visible, including a remote Landing Strip and a Gravel Pit, providing evidence of mid-century exploration and resource management. The map also records several family-named or descriptive waterways such as Mastodon Creek, Fish Creek, and the Mud Fork, which serve as primary landmarks in this road-sparse environment.
