1952 Map of Marshall D-2

About this map

Yukon River hydraulics dominate this early 1950s landscape, where the shifting river creates a complex network of braids and secondary channels. The prominent Dogtooth Bend marks a sharp transition in the main watercourse, while the Poltes Slough and Center Slough delineate the low-lying interior islands and marshy flats. These waterways provided the primary infrastructure for movement in the region, supplemented only by seasonal routes like the Winter Trail that cuts across the northern reaches. Settlement is sparse, represented by a lone Cabin along the bank, indicating a landscape utilized for seasonal trapping, fishing, or transit rather than permanent township development. The map also traces the winding path of the Reindeer River through the southern wetlands, illustrating the intricate drainage patterns characteristic of the Alaskan wilderness before significant modern alteration.
