1954 Map of Livengood D-3

About this map

North Fork Hess Creek carves a deep valley through this interior landscape, which was mapped via aerial photography in the early 1950s. The topography is defined by high ridgelines and survey stations such as VABM Kermit and VABM North, which served as critical control points for the Geological Survey's mapping efforts in the Fourth Judicial Division. This sheet depicts the drainage patterns and elevation contours of a region without established roads or settlements at the time of the survey, focusing instead on the hydrography of the North Fork Hess Creek watershed and the specific elevation peaks that guided territorial explorers and surveyors.
