The Yukon River and the jagged peaks of the White Mountains anchor this 1951 reconnaissance map of interior Alaska. Placer mining and transport history are central to this landscape, with the Steese Highway and Elliott Highway providing primary access to remote settlements like Livengood and Chatanika. The map captures an era when the region’s economic pulse was tied to these road corridors and the mineral-rich gulches and pups of the local mining districts.
