About this map

Noodor Grouse Dome and Ronald stand as prominent surveying benchmarks within this interior Alaskan landscape, which was mapped from aerial photography taken in 1951. The topography is defined by a dense network of drainages, including Lost Creek, Granite Creek, and Grouse Creek, which flow through terrain marked by geological features like the Pingo in the southwest and the Butte to the northwest.

Evidence of human activity is sparse, centered primarily on a lone Cabin located near Victoria Creek in the southeastern portion of the quadrangle. The map reflects a period before formal roads or trails were documented, showing instead the natural intersections of the Fairbanks Meridian and the winding paths of Bear Creek. This document serves as a detailed record of the region's hydrography and elevation before modern infrastructure reached this part of the Yukon-Koyukuk area.
