1959 Map of McCarthy D-1

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The Nutzotin Mountains dominate this high-altitude landscape along the Alaska Yukon border, where the headwaters of the White River system begin to take shape. Surveyed in the late 1950s, the terrain reveals a remote wilderness defined by glacially influenced water bodies like Ptarmigan Lake and the expansive Rock Lake. The presence of Horsefeld and a lone Cabin near the lake suggests a seasonal or historic human footprint, likely tied to early trapping or prospecting in the region.
